Explore all of the different types and names of 3-D shapes.  Watch how each net forms a different 3-D shape.

3.  Compare 3-D and Nets
You can switch from looking at a 3-D shape or net form.  3 words are used.  Vertices means points on the shape.  Edges are all of the edges that can be counted on all 6 faces.  We know faces means sides.

Extra Time Activities

Next week we will continue to look at 3-D shapes and discover how they are built from 2-D shapes.  Check these pages out to see some examples of this.

1.  Exploring 3-D Shapes
Explore and play with the prisms at the bottom of the page.  Look at how they can be made from a flat 2-D shape.

2. Learn more about 3-D shapes
Click on the 3-D picture on the first screen.  You may investigate the 2-D shapes if you are confused about what 2-D shapes are.

3. Putting Nets Together
Look at the Net and determine what 3-D shape it would build.
