The class can select and sort a set of cards to identify a range of cuboids shapes at different sizes and orientations to use when producing some example model cuboids.
Download this teaching pack including display posters, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to identify and record some of the different objects that are shaped as cuboids that can be found in locations around the school building and grounds
Activities in this teaching pack include display posters to identify different objects shaped as cuboids that can be found around the school, a set of cards to match different examples of a range of geometric shapes that are cuboids and a worksheet to record different objects shaped as cuboids that can be found around the school.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore some of the different objects shaped as cuboids that can be found in locations around the school.
This lesson is part of a numeracy scheme of work to get the children to identify and record different types of 3D shapes that can be seen in a range objects by sorting and modelling examples of each shape. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
