This activity is for a Calculus class to help students visualize how to calculate volume by the shells method. Students will be given a typical volume problem and create 5 to 7 cylinder shells to approximate the shape. Then they make the actual shape and calculate the volume.
This is the companion activity to Finding Volume: Disc Method http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1711469
