Visualize Solid Figures
In this solid figure worksheet, students write 3 possible combinations of views and a solid figure for a set of 3 plane figures. Students are given choices in a box at the top of the page. Students then draw and label top views of a cone...

Countdown Challenge: Platonic Solids - Part II
In this platonic solid worksheet, students observe five solids and draw a net of each three-dimensional figure. Students examine a tetrahedron, an octahedron, an icosahedron, a cube, and a dodecahedron. This is a one-page worksheet.

Sort Solid Figures
In this solid figures instructional activity, students read the word problems about the solid figures and find the figure that follows the rule.
Curated OER
Geometry: Plane Figures
In this plane figure worksheet, students complete 4 multiple choice questions, determining which solid figure can be traced to make a given plane figure. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

Identify Faces
In this solid shapes learning exercise, students learn to identify solid shape faces. Students identify the solid shapes and the faces in the six word problems.
World Wildlife Fund
Arctic Shapes
In a two-part worksheet, young geometers examine 3-D shapes and describe their attributes in a table. They will be able to draw the shape and name the number of vertices, faces, and edges. In the second part, individuals explore nets of...

The Volume of Prisms and Cylinders and Cavalieri’s Principle
Young mathematicians examine area of different figures with the same cross-sectional lengths and work up to volumes of 3D figures with the same cross-sectional areas. The instruction and the exercises stress that the two figures do not...

How Do 3D Printers Work?
If we stack up all the cross sections of a figure, does it create the figure? Pupils make the connection between the complete set of cross sections and the solid. They then view videos in order to see how 3D printers use Cavalerie's...

Spatial Relations - Week 9
In this spatial relations worksheet, learners identify the number of triangles in a given figure, identify the number of cubes that a plane intersects, and determine the number of line segments in a given cube. This three-page worksheet...
Curated OER
Spatial Relations - Week 9
In this spatial relations worksheet, students solve three-dimensional problems. They find the total number of triangles in a given figure, the number of line segments that endpoints and use integer points to solve two problems. This...
