Jack Hartmann again! Watch his 2D shape video and name the shapes:
Watch this Jack Hartmann video about 3D shapes:
Main Task:
Look at the 2 worksheets below and talk to someone about the answers – of you would like to, you can write the answers in your jotter.
Can you talk about the properties of these 2D shapes? That means what is it about the shape that makes it that shape. How many corners/vertices does each one have? How many sides/edges does each one have?
Extra Challenge:
Can you talk about the properties of these 3D shapes? That means what makes them this shape? How many faces does each one have? How many corners/vertices does each one have? How many edges does each one have?
So a cylinder has 3 faces (2 flat and 1 curved face) and 2 edges, but 0 corners (or vertices)
(If you are able to, you could try and find objects in your house that are these shapes, as it is hard to tell properly from just a picture)
