Rationale:

Solving word problems involving measurement of solids
particularly on rectangular prism is identified as one of the least mastered skill as
reflected in the 2013 National Achievement Test. In order that this competency is
addressed, an interactive resource material is developed which would enrich this
particular competency.

Description: This support material is designed as an interactive material
wherein pupils themselves will be grouped to undertake manipulative activities
and come up with output/s .

Target Audience: Grade VI Gifted and Talented SPED Pupils

Objective:
Identify rectangular prism
Derive the formula in solving problems involving measurement
of rectangular prism.
Solve word problems involving measurement of rectangular prism.

Subject Matter and Competency:

Solving word problem involving measurement of Solid
(Rectangular Prism)

Duration and Progress: 20 minutes

How to use the material:
1. Group the class into 4(depending upon the size of the
class).
2. Give the dimension of the given drawing.
3. Solve for the surface area of rectangular prism.

Activity 1. The Magic Box:
I nstruction:
1. Cut the figure and fold following the broken lines.
2. Form the shape of a box out of the figure
3. Measure the box formed.

Observe the figure and answer the following:

1. What shape have you formed?
2. Measure the dimensions of the rectangular box which come
up with/? How many faces are there?
3. Are there pairs of equal faces?
4. Which faces are equal? Name them.
5. Are the sides equal? Which sides are equal?
6. If you will find its surface area, how will you do it?

Look at this figure and answer the ff:
What kind of spatial figure is it?
Check the measurements of each face.
Can you describe it?
What is a Rectangular prism
What is the measure of its length?
its width and its height?
Solve for the Total Surface Area
Derive the formula in Solving the Total surface area of
Rectangular Prism

Derive the formula in Solving the Total surface area of

Activity1.2: Lets apply what we have learned:
1. Find the surface area of the given figure below:

4.5 m

8m

FRONT

10.5 cm
4cm
5cm
Remember: So, to find the surface area of the rectangular prism,
we can use this computation based on the observation.
Area of Top Face 12.5 X 4 = 50 cm
2
Area of Bottom Face 12.5 X 4 = 50 cm
2
Area of Front Face 12.5 X 5 = 62.5 cm
2

Area of Back Face 12.5 X 5 = 62.5 cm
2

Area of the 2 sides 2(4X5) = 40 cm

Test Your Self

Solve for the surface area:

1. A closed rectangular subdivision water tank, 5m by 3m by 1.5m is to be
painted all over. What is the total surface area to be painted?
2. Find the surface area of a rectangular prism which is 45 dm long, 36 dm wide,
and 0.24 dm high.

Teachers Guide:

Rationale:
Solving word problems involving measurement of solids
particularly on rectangular prism is an identified least mastered skill as reflected
in the 2013 National Achievement Test. In order that this competency is being
addressed, a resources material on using manipulatives /problem solving is being
introduced as a way of enrichment activity in order that this particular skill will
be understood well by the pupils.
