Objective: You are an employee at Kelloggs company. It is your job to design a more effective cereal box.

You are to create a new cereal box that holds the same volume but uses a smaller surface area (less cardboard). Part A: Describe the cereal box you are recreating. Give the current dimensions, the current Surface area and current volume or the original box you will be redesigning. Show and explain all work Part B: Give the dimensions of the new box you have designed. Show and Explain how it has a smaller surface area and the same volume. Part C: Create and design your new cereal box. This may be a 3-d drawing or actual drawing. You will present your ideas to the class.

4 Explanations The student response demonstrate s an exemplary understandi ng of the Measureme nt concepts involved in finding the volumes and surface area and solving a problem related to these volumes. Mathematic 100% of the al Errors steps and solutions have no mathematic al errors. Completion All problems are completed. Shows a full understandi ng of the topic.

3 The student response demonstrate s a good understandi ng of the Measureme nt concepts involved in finding the volumes and surface area and solving a problem related to these volumes. 90-99 % of the steps and solutions have no mathematic al errors. All but one of the problems are completed. Shows a good understandi ng of the topic.

2 The student response demonstrate s a fair understandi ng of the Measureme nt concepts involved in finding the volumes and surface area and solving a problem related to these volumes. 75- 90% of the steps and solutions have no mathematic al errors. All but two of the problems are completed. Shows a good understandi ng of parts of the topic.

1 The student response demonstrate s a minimal understandi ng of the Measuremen t concepts involved in finding the volumes and surface area and solving a problem related to these volumes. Less than 75 % of the steps and solutions have no mathematic al errors. Several of the problems are not completed. Does not seem to understand the topic very well.
