About this worksheet

What students practice

Students explain that a cube with 1-unit edges is a unit cube with a volume of 1 cubic unit.
Students find volume by counting the unit cubes in a solid with no gaps or overlaps.
Students tell cubic units apart from units of length and area.

How to use

Pass around a centimeter cube before starting so students can hold one cubic centimeter. Students can build the Part 2 shapes with real cubes to check their counts.
