Surface Area Inquiry
This resource from Inquiry Maths is designed to encourage students to explore connections between surface area and volume.
The surface area of a cuboid can never be less than its volume details how the prompt can be used. The statement is false and the intention is that students find a counter example to show that the statement is not always true. Extensions to the prompt are suggested and student responses to the prompt are shown.
Lesson notes include teaching points and suggested teaching suggestions.
