Volume of Cylinders, Cones, & Spheres Doodle Notes
Formulas and procedures for finding the volume of a cylinder, sphere, and cone - "doodle notes" -
When students color or doodle in math class, it activates both hemispheres of the brain at the same time. There are proven benefits of this cross-lateral brain activity:
- new learning
- relaxation (less math anxiety)
- visual connections
- better memory & retention of the content!
Students fill in the sheets, answer the questions, and color, doodle or embellish. Then, they can use it as a study guide later on.
Content includes:
- step-by-step process for calculations
- formulas for volumes of each
- how to say it out loud
- diagrams for each to mark height, radius, etc.
- reminders about labeling units
- practice and examples for each

Reviews from other teachers:
-My students enjoyed coloring and using the Doodle notes. The formulas and practice questions were just what I needed for notetaking guides for a quick lesson prior to standardized testing. I did add word problems from sample standardized test questions to go deeper with the standard.
-Very easy to understand when a teacher is not present. I love the Doodle Notes and that's rubbed off on my students who were happy to see this type of notes.
-I am using this as notetaking/interactive notebook notes to supplement online lessons. It is great for the artistic side of students especially visual learners!
-Great resource as an alternative to traditional notes. Used it during summer school and it was perfect.
-I printed this out with a poster printer, having it displayed has helped my kids visualize the concept.
-My students love these Doodle Notes. I use them as a graphic organizer to clear up any misconceptions after a lesson
