Students will play learning games to practice identifying and creating 3-dimensional figures.

Use this tool to see animated models of over 100 different types of polyhedra. There are five options for how they appear, and you can also see the net, 'explode' the solid so that the faces are separated, or drag it to rotate it...

This interactive exercise focuses on volume equations, measurement, and problem solving skills to compare the volume of 3D figures constructed from similar amounts of construction materials.

The resource consists of a tool to investigate the area of a variety of shapes. It could also be useful when calculating the surface area of each face of a 3D solid, and then adding them together.

As a whole group, students will sort a collection of three-dimensional objects into categories by shape. There should be several that fall into each of the categories below: Aligns with 1.G.A.1.

Use this interactive tool to explore prisms. Change the height and the shape of the base to see how these affect the prism. There are also several additional options, e.g., making it oblique or transparent. Properties of a prism are...
