Unit 8
Statistics
Unit 8 focuses on Geometry, focusing on attributes of 2D Polygons and extending understanding to 3D Prisms & Pyramids as well by constructing them using Nets. This Unit focuses on understanding Area of 2D Shapes & Surfrace Area of 3D shapes as a sum of Unit Squares, and Volume as a sum of Unit Cubes. While the main 2D shapes covered are Triangles & Quadrilaterals, the main 3D figures covered are Right Rectangular Prisms, Triangular Prisms, Square Pyramids, & Triangular Pyramids.
