We have used multilink cubes to assist us, each cube measuring at 1 cubic centimetre. We even estimated the volume of our class which was approximately 123 cubic metres (or 123250000 cubic centimetres)! Great estimating Year 5! ### volume [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/volume/IMG_2036.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/volume/IMG_2036.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/volume/IMG_2037.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/volume/IMG_2037.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/volume/IMG_2038.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/volume/IMG_2038.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/volume/IMG_2039.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/volume/IMG_2039.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/volume/IMG_2040.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/volume/IMG_2040.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/volume/IMG_2041.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/volume/IMG_2041.JPG) [Year 5](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/year-5) [Maths](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/maths) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/100x100c/blog/IMG_3838%5B1%5D.JPG)](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2023-07-13-11-25-46-designing-a-pyramid) Previous ### [Designing a pyramid ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2023-07-13-11-25-46-designing-a-pyramid) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/100x100c/blog/IMG_0207.JPG)](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2023-07-14-14-28-23-y2-design-and-technology) Next ### [Y2 - Design and Technology](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2023-07-14-14-28-23-y2-design-and-technology) ### School Life - [Brookside Blog ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog) - [News](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/news) - [Events](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/events) - [Photograph Galleries ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/photo-galleries) - [School Council](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/school-council) - [After-School Clubs ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/after-school-clubs) - [KIDZ Club](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/kidz-club) - [Calendar](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/calendar) - [Newsletters](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/information-for-parents/newsletters-2026-2027) - [Mental Health ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/mental-health) ##### Location Rostherne Avenue Great Sutton Cheshire CH66 2EE ##### Contact Us 0151 558 1123 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/groups/brooksideprimary/) © Copyright 2014–2026 Brookside Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
