Students will explore volume conjectures and solve problems by applying the volume formulas to composite figures.

Get independent practice drawing three-dimensional figures. Each incorrect response gets a text box explanation and another try. Correct responses are confirmed.

This site gives a short interactive quiz which allows students to self-assess their understanding of the concept of three-dimensional figures.

Get independent practice working with scaling three-dimensional figures. Each incorrect response gets a text box explanation and another try. Correct responses are confirmed.

In this activity, students learn to draw a three-dimensional figure using Isometric Dots in the Explorer Draw App on the calculator. They also find the area and volume of a rectangular prism. [Requires Adobe Reader.]

This page brings you to a table of contents of three-dimensional figures. Selecting a figure will bring you to a page defining and illustrating the figure with applicable formulas listed.

Given application problems involving 3-dimensional figures, the student will estimate measurements, including surface area and/or volume, then solve the problems.

Describes the basic three-dimensional figures students will encounter in elementary Math and in the world around them, and makes mention of a few unusual ones.

A guide to support parents as they work with their students with two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes.

In this lesson, students will learn to identify three-dimensional shapes by name and distinguish between two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes.

While 3 Dimensional shapes are not mentioned specifically in the Common Core, they do include the term face which is more appropriate for 3D shape attributes.

This site provides an in-depth definition of a two-dimensional figure and a three-dimensional figure. Related terms include arcs, vertices, polygon, and many more.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Students watch a video and attempt practice problems on identifying and naming 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.

Lesson introducing the basic three-dimensional shapes (sphere, cylinder, cone, cube). Common items with those shapes are hidden on the playground for students to find and photograph. Pictures are then used to create a photostory....

In this math activity, students will practice and strengthen their ability to express a sum using the distributive property by completing example problems with a Draw It activity.

[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.

Explore connections between a 2-dimensional net and a 3-dimensional box. Later in this section, use equations with variables to solve real world problems that use 2 and 3-dimensional objects.

Given pictorial representations and problem situations of 2-dimensional figures or 3-dimensional figures, the student will use proportional reasoning to find a missing measurement.

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...

Get your spy glasses ready! In this weeklong adventure, children will explore shapes and their attributes and use this knowledge to decode a secret message. Children will learn about two-dimensional (flat) and three-dimensional (solid)...

This lesson utilizes the concepts of cross-sections of three-dimensional figures to demonstrate the derivation of two-dimensional shapes.

Provides a list of area and perimeter formulas for two-dimensional shapes and volume and surface area formulas for three-dimensional solids.

On this interactive website students practice various math skills including naming prisms and pyramids, drawing cross sections of prisms and pyramids, and exploring three-dimensional views.
