    • Calculate the volume of a three‑dimensional shape, like a pyramid, cylinder, or cone. Measure its dimensions, then calculate using the formula for that shape.

    • Practice your estimation skills. Find a rectangular prism around your room with a length of twice its height. Predict its dimensions, then measure it. Compare the measurements to your prediction.
