The video tutorial begins with a discussion on area and surface area, explaining how these are measured using square units. It then transitions to the concept of volume, introducing the idea of filling three-dimensional objects with unit cubes. The tutorial explains how to calculate volume by counting these unit cubes, using a practical example of a shape made up of blocks. The session concludes with a summary and a homework assignment to reinforce the concepts learned.
