solve problems involving the volume of right prisms including rectangular and triangular prisms, using established formulas and appropriate units

How Bloomi helps with this

This is a NAPLAN-year topic. Bloomi teaches it with a short explainer, guided practice, and NAPLAN-style questions — every one traceable to this exact code.

What this looks like in the classroom

• building a rectangular prism out of unit cubes and showing that the measure of volume is the same as would be found by multiplying the \(3\) edge lengths or by multiplying the area of the base by the height/length
• developing the connection between the area of the parallel cross-section (base), the height and volume of a rectangular or triangular prism to other prisms
• connecting the area of the floor space and the number of floors of a high-rise building to calculate the volume of a building
