Hi, what do you want to do?
Curated OER
Integrating Art Into Other Content Areas
Here are some ideas to help add an art lesson to every math, science, social studies, or language arts unit.
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...
Curated OER
Spatial Relations - Week 9
In this spatial relations worksheet, students 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
Faces, Vertices, Edges
Learners identify the parts of three dimensional objects. In this geometry lesson, students find the number of faces, edges and vertices. They differentiate between prisms and polyhedra.
Curated OER
Exploring Projective Geometry
For this exploring projective geometry worksheet, students use computer software for instruction, then answer 9 questions about 3D drawings.
Cuemath
Cuemath: Polyhedron
Introduces the concept of polyhedrons by learning the definition, types, and where they are found. Check-out the solved examples for better understanding and try your hand at solving a few interactive questions at the end of the page.
CK-12 Foundation
Ck 12: Geometry: Polyhedrons
[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] This concept teaches students about polyhedrons, Euler's Theorem, and regular polyhedrons.
Annenberg Foundation
Annenberg Learner: Geometry 3 D Shapes: Polyhedra, Prisms, and Pyramids
An introduction to a type of three-dimensional shape called a polyhedron. See examples and play with an interactive animation, showing the faces, vertices, and edges of pyramids, which are a type of polyhedron.
University of Regina (Canada)
University of Regina: Math Central: Constructing a Polyhedron
Students are given instructions on how to construct a paper, uniform polyhedron in the shape of a star ball. Animation is used to show the steps to make the star ball. There are also additional modules for other shapes and discussion...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Apply Euler's Theorem.
NumberNut
Number Nut: Shapes, Symbols, and Colors: 3 D Shapes
This lesson describes three dimensional shapes and provides two interactive practice activities.
University of Cambridge
University of Cambridge: Nrich: Skeleton Shapes
At this one page website a variety of polyhedra are shown. The challenge is to create the skeleton for each polyhedron and identify the needed materials. You can check your solution right at the website.
University of Cambridge
University of Cambridge: Nrich: Building With Solid Shapes
Predict which solid shape constructions would be unstable as shown at this one page website. Solutions are available right at the website.
Math Is Fun
Math Is Fun: Animated Polyhedron Models
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...
Annenberg Foundation
Annenberg Learner: Geometry 3 D Shapes: Platonic Solids
Learn about platonic solids, a special type of polyhedra. Read a definition, make three-dimensional models using printouts, and play with an interactive animation, which will show you the faces, vertices, and edges on platonic solids:...
Cuemath
Cuemath: Prism
Explore the world of prisms in this mini-lesson by learning what are prisms, definitions with shapes and examples, the difference between regular, irregular, right, and oblique prisms, the surface area of a prism, and the volume of a...
National Council of Teachers of Mathematics
Nctm: Figure This: Cut the Cake
A math challenge where geometry, measurement, and problem solving meet. Explore the properties of three dimensional shapes when you discover how six friends can equally divide a nine inch square chocolate cake. A one page activity from...
ClassFlow
Class Flow: Three Dimensional Figures
[Free Registration/Login Required] This flipchart describes the characteristics of polyhedrons and asks students to classify figures according to the number of vertices, faces, and bases of the figures.
Khan Academy
Khan Academy: Nets of Polyhedra
Practice matching 2D nets to the 3D shapes the fold up into. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.
ClassFlow
Class Flow: Nets
[Free Registration/Login Required] In this flipchart, students explore geometric sense by interacting with plane diagrams that create a three-dimensional shape.
Cuemath
Cuemath: Square Pyramid
A comprehensive guide for learning all about square pyramids with definitions, properties, examples, and practice questions.
