Surface Area of Cylinders, Cones, and Spheres Sum 'Em Activity

This is a fun activity that gets students working together and excited to practice surface area of cylinders, cones, and spheres! Students won't mind practicing geometry with this group activity.In this activity, students will find the surface area of cylinders, cones, and spheres. Students are given the radius (or diameter) and height for each problem. The problems are straightforward and do not require any algebra skills other than substituting into the formulas. There are eight sets of cards and four problems are in each set. Students are grouped in fours, each student takes a card, and works the problem on the card. When all students in the group have their answers, they add them up, getting a group sum. Then, the group checks their sum with the teacher. If they are correct, they work on the next set of cards, if not, they work together to see where or which student in the group went wrong. This activity encourages peer tutoring. Make sure these problems are appropriate for your students - download the preview to see problem examples.This is also part of the following bundle:Surface Area and Volume Activity Bundle_____________________________________________________________________________You might also be interested in:Surface Area and Volume of Spheres FlipbookSurface Area and Volume Sum Em ActivitySurface Area and Volume Stations Maze ActivityVolume of Cylinders, Cones, and Spheres Sum Em ActivityVolume of Solids Stations Maze_____________________________________________________________________________Be the first to know about my new discounts, freebies, and products!Look for the green star near the top of any page within my store and click it to become a follower.
