The video tutorial covers the concept of prisms and how to calculate their volume using unit cubes. It begins with an introduction to the components of a prism and the method to determine its volume. The tutorial then demonstrates building a prism with unit cubes, explaining how to calculate the volume by counting cubes in layers. It further illustrates drawing layers of a prism and calculating the total volume. The session concludes with a summary and encourages students to redo the exit ticket to demonstrate their understanding.
