   This Week at Brown: 9/29      Wednesday-Late Start                Word Study-  Unit 1 prefixes (in, un, mis, dis)  Math- We will continue working on the Volume of Rectangular Prisms. In previous lessons, students used the structure of a rectangular prism, namely layers, to find its volume. In this lesson, students describe the number of layers and the number of cubes in each layer in terms of the length, width, and height of the prism (MP6). Students choose a base for the prism and recognize that the number of cubes in each layer is the product of the length and width of the chosen base. They also recognize that the height that corresponds with the chosen base represents the number of layers in the prism. They connect this relationship to the product of the length, width, and height of a prism. With this understanding of how to find the volume of a rectangular prism, students do not always need to see the indi...
