Students will practice finding the surface area of pyramids with this Cross Number Puzzle. This activity includes only square pyramids and pyramids with equilateral triangle bases.
This activity is similar to a crossword puzzle, but instead of filling in letters, students fill in numbers. There are both Across and Down problems. Students find the surface area of the pyramid given each diagram and record their answers in the puzzle accordingly. The puzzle is self-checking, allowing students to spot and correct errors if their answers do not fit.
There are 25 problems included. This activity can be completed independently or with a partner. When working in pairs, one partner can complete the Across problems while the other works on the Down problems.
