Today in math, we continued our work on volume, but took it to a much larger scale. First, the class collaboratively worked on creating tubes 1 metre long, then they attached them all to make a cubic metre.

| Planning stage |
 |
| Early construction |
 |
| Does it measure up? |
 |
| Assembling a face by attaching edges |
 |
| Final assembly: from the ground, up! |
 |
| Sometimes problems had to be solved |
 |
| Many hands make light work |
 |
| So much tension! |
 |
| The final product! |
We also discussed when we would use such a large unit for measurement, then we converted it to square centimetres. Here is what we came up with:
V = l x w x h
= 1m x 1m x 1m
= 100cm x 100cm x 100cm
= 1,000,000cm³
Therefore, 1m³=1,000,000cm³
