Two-dimensional shapes (2D Shapes)
Polygons are closed shapes that have three or more angles and sides
- Polygons have the same number of sides as vertices.
- Polygons are identified by their number of sides.
- Polygons have the same number of sides as vertices.
- Polygons are identified by their number of sides.

Regular shapes (Polygons) have all sides equal and all angles equal.
Irregular shapes (Polygons) don't have all equal sides and angles

RECOGNISING THE FACES OF PRISMS AND CYLINDERS
Match the faces to the the 3D object
3D OBJECT PROPERTIES
Select a 3D object and guess the faces, edges and vertices. Then click on "Show Total" to see if you were correct. You could also watch the object unfold into it's net shape
ISOMETRIC 3D OBJECT DRAWING TOOL
Look at the 3D Object and draw it on the Isometric grid. You can do this as a class, for homework, as early finisher activity or just for fun!
