About this activity

Design, size, and fold 3D packaging nets for studio toys while calculating panel-by-panel surface area and cardboard costs.

What students learn

  • Construct and fold 2D nets into 3D rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, and pyramids
  • Calculate surface area of prisms and pyramids by summing the areas of individual congruent net panels
  • Connect 2D net dimensions (length, width, height, slant height) to 3D packaging volume and surface area
  • Analyze material efficiency and commercial packaging constraints
