4.GM.2.3

Develop the concept that the volume of rectangular prisms with whole-number edge lengths can be found by counting the total number of same-sized unit cubes that fill a shape without gaps or overlaps. Use a variety of tools and create models to determine the volume using appropriate measurements (e.g., cm3).

Example Problems
