Activities in this teaching pack include a worksheet to identify and describe different 3D shapes by the matching 2D shapes that can be found on each of their faces and a template to label a model of a 3D shape identifying and describing the matching 2D shapes on their faces.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore and record the different 2D shapes that can be found on the faces of a range of 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.
