Calculating cut size

Part of Lesson Plan: Box and Cover Project Part 1

Activity Overview / Details

As students enter and take their seats, they will see an isometric drawing on the board of a basic sheet metal box with dimensions. I ask them to figure what size sheet metal they would need to produce this box. I have them work in teams of 2 or 3 and instruct them to show their math calculations on paper and turn over their paper when complete. I will take roll while calculations are taking place.
