Add the area of each face of a prism to find the surface area of three-dimensional objects.

Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Demonstrate an understanding of the concept of the surface area.
  • Recognize that surface area is found by adding up the individual areas of each face.
  • Add whole numbers using appropriate tools, as needed.
  • Understand two- and three-dimensional dimensionality (two-dimensional is space covered, three-dimensional is the space within).
Representation:
  • Understand symbols from a formula.
  • Enter data into a formula to find the area.
  • Understand the following concepts and vocabulary: area, base, height, slant, surface area, prism, net, face.

Number: MAFS.7.G.2.AP.6a Category: Access Points
Date Adopted or Revised: 06/14 Cluster: Solve real-life and mathematical problems involving angle measure, area, surface area, and volume. (Additional Cluster)

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
