Discover the characteristics of 3D shapes in this fantasy world of fish.

Discover 2D shapes and 3D objects from different views in Antarctica!

In this project, you will make 2-dimensional templates, called nets, that fold up into 3-dimensional (3-D) shapes. By making shapes of different sizes, you will be able to see how 3-D shapes change with size. In your findings you will...

A learning resource that incorporates augmented reality (AR), using a camera, where students explore the volume and surface area of 3-D figures. The home page for this site has a PDF resource that explains how AR works and provides...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Students watch a video and attempt practice problems on identifying faces, edges and vertices of three dimensional shapes.

Can you help Leela find objects of different 3D shapes in her parents' tea store?

A ten-question test for assessing geometry concepts with solid figures. This assessment is scored online providing students with immediate feedback. Great for use as an assessment tool.

On this interactive website students practice various math skills using a real life scenario at a toy store. Those skills include describing the features of pyramids, prisms, cones, cylinders and spheres.

Abby is on holiday and is exploring different 3D shapes. Want to join her?

Students will create a model of a three-dimensional shape and create tessellations on a computer using two-dimensional shapes.

An interactive game to find number of edges, surfaces and vertices of different geometric shapes.

The students will make the connection between 2-D and 3-D shapes using modeling clay and geometric solids and participate in an interactive web lesson plan. Students will make predictions about what 2-D shape they think will be made when...

This Math Forum instructional activity gives instructions on how to build a paper pyramid. Bonuses included finding the surface area and volume of the pyramid.

This tutorial explains the concept of surface area, and then goes through multiple shapes offering the specific surface area formula for each one.

Using an engaging approach, this lesson requires students to record the volume of cylinders as a function of the radius. Students will construct and measure the volume of several cylinders and then begin comparing these shapes.

A complete reference guide to solid geometry. The mathematics resource provides definitions and interactive activities that enhance further explanation.

Use this lesson plan to help students learn about cylinders. Students will be creating cylinders, and comparing them and their capacity. This engaging, hands-on lesson will hold student interest and be very beneficial to student learning.

This lesson offers an interesting, hands-on experience for middle school students studying cylinders. Students will create cylinders, and measure and compare their volumes.

Practice identifying 3D shapes.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Students watch a video overview on the flat surfaces or faces of three dimensional shapes.

Practice your 3D visualization skills by rotating 2D shapes. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Students watch a video and attempt practice problems on how to count the number of faces in various three dimensional shapes.

On this interactive website students practice various math skills using a real life scenario. Those skills include identifying 3D objects, identifying the similarities and differences in prisms and pyramids, and drawing 3D shapes such as...
