What educators are saying

This is a great resource to allow students to practice with surface area. I posted the questions around the room to allow students to walk around while also solving problems.
My students were struggling with surface area this year. These task cards provided great practice and helped my students understand the concept.

Description

Boost your students' understanding of surface area of pyramids and prisms with this engaging task card geometry activity.  This low-prep set includes 20 task cards that are perfect for reinforcing all aspects of surface area of rectangular prisms, cubes, triangular prisms, square pyramids and triangular pyramids. With minimal prep required, your students will practice and build these skills in a fun, engaging and out-of-their seat activity perfect for supplementing any lesson.  

These cards can quickly be set up for a variety of different activities that will make for a more dynamic learning environment.  They are great for math centers, independent practice, scavenger hunts, “SCOOT”, walkabouts,  and group or cooperative learning models.  

Also included are five different versions of recording sheets, as well as an additional version for interactive notebooks.  Pick whichever format works best for your students!  These cards come on 5 pages with 4 cards on each that simply need to be printed and cut.  You can print in full color or use the black and white version for more budget-friendly printing.

Includes:

  • 20 Task Cards covering the full scope of surface area of pyramids and prisms
  • 5 different recording sheets
  • 1 Interactive Notebook Recording Sheet 
  • Answer Key

Your students will love reinforcing their knowledge of surface area of pyramids and prisms while they are out of their seats and having fun.  They will be moving around and you will be keeping math fun! 

No additional materials are needed, but I recommend laminating the cards for use year after year. 

Covers: 6.G.A.4

Here’s what other teachers are saying about this resource:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Shannone P. says  “I loved using the task cards with my students. I have a small group of kids and they enjoyed getting out of their seats to work on it. THey actually got done faster than if they were to stay in their seats to do it.”

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Brenda G. says “Perfect resource for practicing surface area! I used these both in a station and as small group work! ”
