Students draw 3-dimensional block shapes onto isometric paper from 2-dimensional plans.

Students use their knowledge of the interior angles of regular polygons, isosceles triangles, and parallelograms to work out unknown angles for a variety of 2-dimensional shapes.

Students use their knowledge of the angle between a tangent and radius property and the sum of the angles in a quadrilateral to work out unknown angles in a diagram and explain their workings.

Students identify the angle of different objects and movements.

Students identify similar shapes of all sizes from a given drawing.

Students identify the angle of different objects and movements.

Students compare the area of two different triangles.

Students use their knowledge of angle properties of parallel lines and angles on a straight line to identify similar angles and to calculate the sum of three angles giving appropriate explanations.

Students drag and drop to sort 2-dimensional shapes into three categories based on the number of sides, curved sides, or corners the shape has.

Students identify the number of faces for different 3-dimensional cube models.

Students are required to draw in arrows to show the parallel lines on three given shapes. They then draw in a right-angle symbol to show the perpendicular lines on three other given shapes.

Using a diagram of a regular hexagon, students calculate its interior and exterior angles.

Students calculate the interior and exterior angles of a regular octagon and explain their calculations.

Students predict nets that fold to make a cube, then cut out and fold the nets to check their prediction.

Students identify which nets, from a range of options, could fold to make rectangular prisms.

Students identify which nets can be folded to make an open box shape.

Students identify which nets can be folded to make an open box shape.

Students construct 3-dimensional shapes from plasticine and predict what the cross-section will be prior to cutting it.

Students observe and draw 4 views of 3-dimensional objects in relation to each other and use these drawings to predict the top view of the same objects.

This practical task requires students to construct a model based on a diagram of a similar model. They then draw their model onto isometric paper.

This practical task requires students to construct a model, using blocks, from drawings of five different view points of that model.

This task requires students to circle a corner, an edge, and a face on three different shapes. Students then count how many corners, edges, and faces each shape has altogether.

This task requires students to draw the cross-sections of three differently shaped 3-dimensional containers.

Students draw cross-sections of different 3-dimensional objects.

Students draw top and side views of five different 3-dimensional objects.
