3D Shape

In this lesson, we will identify the names and properties of a range of 3D shapes. We will apply this understanding to real world 3D based problem solving.

In this lesson, we will be introduced to new 3D shapes (cones, cylinders, and cuboids). We will discuss the properties of these shapes using mathematical vocabulary, and determine how they are similar and different.

In this lesson, we will recap the key mathematical vocabulary used to describe 3D shapes and use that vocabulary to identify the properties of constructed 3D shapes. We will use the terms face, edge, vertex and apex.

In this lesson, we will recap the key vocabulary used to describe 3D shapes before we apply our understanding of 3D shapes to solve a problem which involves a 3D shape made up of cubes that needs painting, with associated costs.

In this lesson, we will consolidate our learning of 3D shapes by recapping out previous learning: key vocabulary, properties of 3D shapes and categorising of 3D shapes.
