Practice Post
Get ready for your Chapter Challenge with these practice questions!
What is the difference between a 2D and 3D object?
Two-dimensional shapes, like polygons and circles, take up area, a space on a flat surface (like a plane). 2D shapes have width and length but no height. Shapes in three dimensions (3D) have volume; they take up space and have width, length and height, thickness or depth
Is a sphere a 2D or 3D shape?
3D
What is an equilateral triangle?
A triangle with 3 sides with EQUAL lengths
Observation Station
Let's get hands on and apply what we've learned!
We are going to be building 3D shapes out of paper today!
Directions:
Click the picture to the right!
Print out pages 2 (cube),3 (rectangular prism),and 7 (cylinder)
You may print out the rest of the 3D figures if you would like
Cut along the solid black lines and fold along the dotted lines
Use tape or glue to secure the shape together
Ask your parent/ guardian for help with printing and gluing
