3-dimensional shapes resources

From a drawing of a 3-dimensional shape, students draw five different 2-dimensional views of it onto grids.

In this practical task, students use models of 3-dimensional shapes to complete a chart showing the number of faces, corners, and edges for each object.

In this practical task, students use drawings to identify the number of multi-link cubes needed to construct 3-dimensional pieces of furniture. They then construct the pieces.

Students draw cross-sections of different foods.

Students answer questions about the journey of an ant along the edge of a tetrahedron.

Students draw five different views of a 3-dimensional cube model.

Students identify the number of faces, edges and vertices for different 3-dimensional shapes.

Students use a net of a cube to identify opposite faces and what the cube would look like when constructed.

Students categorise 3-dimensional objects into cubes, cuboids (rectangular prisms), cylinders, cones, spheres, and pyramids.

Students match pictures of 2- and 3-dimensional shapes with their correct names.

Students count the number of faces on various 3-dimensional shapes.

Students draw in three 3-dimensional shapes on a grid from the view shown.

This task requires students to identify the shape name, the number of faces, edges and vertices of a selection of everyday objects.

Students calculate the volume of 3-dimensional shapes made up from cubes.

Students give the number of vertices, straight lines, and curved lines and complete sentences to describe different 3-dimensional shapes.

For this NEMP task students match 3D objects and their nets.

In this practical task students make four different 3-dimensional objects.

This practical task requires students to draw various 3-dimensional shapes onto isometric paper from different viewpoints.

Students match three dimensional shapes with nets that could be folded to make them.

For this NEMP task students calculate the amount of pipe length and the minimum number of corners needed to make a cube-shaped frame with 1 metre edges.

Students write down the name of the shape of the 3-dimensional blocks that are used for each part on a diagram of a model train.

For this practical task, students construct 2 different towers from multi-link blocks, then draw these shapes from 3 different views.

Students select what 3-dimensional shape will be made from each of two nets.

Students identify shapes after they have been rotated in 3 dimensions.

In this practical task, students use drawings to identify the number of multi-link cubes needed to construct 3-dimensional shapes. They then construct the objects.
