Lesson Three – Shape Edges
This maths teaching pack for Key Stage One gets the children to explore how to identify, count and record the number of edges that can be found on a range of different 3D shapes.
The class can practise making and labelling models of some different 3D shapes to show how they can be the same or different in terms of their edges as part of a shape’s unique properties.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to explore how to identify, count and record the number of edges that can be found on a range of different 3D shapes
Activities in this teaching pack include a worksheet for core and extension ability levels to make and label models of different 3D shapes to show how they are different in terms of their faces and edges and a set of cards for support ability levels to identify and model the number of edges that can be found on different 3D shapes.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore and record the number of edges that can be found on a range of different 3D shapes.
This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to identify, describe and compare a range of different 3D shapes by their matching properties including their number of faces, edges and vertices. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
