Stone Ice Storage


In this activity, students will estimate the volume of the Seokbinggo, a centuries-old stone structure, and compare it to the size of their home fridge. Through the activity, students will be given the opportunity to think critically and apply reasoning skills as they reflect on their calculations and assumptions. Perfect for Grades 5–6, this activity can also be used with Grade 7 as a shorter warm-up or diagnostic lesson to review basic volume and unit conversion concepts


📝The starter slides set the stage for the activity and include guiding prompts to help you facilitate initial conversations


⏰45–60 minutes, including the starter activity, depending on the depth of discussion
