Maths - 2D and 3D Shapes
You need to be able to identify and describe all of these 2D and 3D shapes. Have a look at these pictures and then have a go at drawing these shapes yourselves. Some of these shapes are easier to draw than others but you just need to practice. Drawing the shapes will help you to remember their names and properties. Perhaps you could make a poster to put on your wall at home.
Look carefully at these 2D shapes:
How many sides does each shape have.
How many vertices (corners) does each shape have?
Are the sides curved or straight?
Are all the sides the same length or are they different lengths?
Look carefully at these 3D shapes:
How many faces does each shape have.
How many vertices (corners) does each shape have?
Are the faces curved or straight?
Are all the sides the same length or are they different lengths?
