Volume of Rectangular Prisms Digital Pixel Art | Fractional Edge Lengths

This product contains 2 Pixel Art Google Sheets - level 1 contains rectangular prisms with whole number edge lengths while level 2 contains rectangular prisms with fractional edge lengths (some proper fractions and mixed fractions).

This pixel art activity covers the 6th grade common core standard:

6.G.A.2 Find the volume of a right rectangular prism with fractional edge lengths by packing it with unit cubes of the appropriate unit fraction edge lengths, and show that the volume is the same as would be found by multiplying the edge lengths of the prism. Apply the formulas v=lwh and v= bh to find volumes of right rectangular prisms with fractional edge lengths in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.

Each of the two pixel arts is a self-checking Google Sheet themed after winter and Valentine's Day. However, the image is versatile enough that it may be used at any time in the school year. Students practice a series of problems, and get immediate feedback as they go. Correct answers turn green and incorrect answers stay red. As students type in correct answers, a mystery picture appears. The Google Sheets are all self checking & digital, so it can easily be assigned through Google Classroom or any online learning platform.

There's no prep required. This is great for virtual or in person learning!
