About these worksheets
Students explore volume concepts with rectangular prisms through a comprehensive set of activities. Worksheets cover finding total volume of combined prisms, calculating volume using the length × width × height formula, counting unit cubes, working with fractional dimensions, identifying smaller units within larger ones, writing volume expressions, and solving volume word problems. Resources span fifth through sixth grade Common Core standards.
Finding Smaller Units
- Practice converting a mixed number into the total number of fractional pieces it contains
- Use a visual model to count how many equal-sized parts make up the whole amount and the fraction together
- Multiply the whole number by the denominator and add the numerator to find the total number of pieces
Using Cubes to Find Volume (Fractional Sides)
- Practice finding the volume of a rectangular prism when one side length is a mixed number (like 4⅔)
- Multiply length × width × height when one dimension includes a fraction
- Use a visual model of unit cubes to understand how fractional parts affect volume
