Maths Focus By the end of the lesson I will be able to: Compare and describe the features of prisms, pyramids, cylinders, cones and spheres. Counting With their counting buddy count forwards by sevens starting at 7.

3D Shapes Using four lines and colour pencil write the title 3D Shapes A 3D shape is a shape with 3 dimensions such as height, width and depth. If you opened it up you could put things inside it. Compare 2D and 3D shapes. Discuss faces, edges and corners (vertices) using 3D shapes. A vertex is where 2 or more lines meet to form an angle or corner. The plural is vertices. Have students manipulate these.

Prisms and Pyramids Prism: A solid 3D shape with two identical bases. All other faces are rectangle. A prism takes its name from the shape of its base. So if the base is a hexagon, it is a hexagonal prism. Pyramid: A solid shape with triangular faces that all meet at a point (vertex). You name a pyramid according to the shape of its base. So if the pyramid has a square base, it is known as a square pyramid. Complete BLM 1 and 2.

Maths Focus By the end of the lesson I will be able to: Sketch prisms, pyramids, cylinders and cones. Compare and describe the features of prisms, pyramids, cylinders, cones and spheres. Counting With their counting buddy count forwards by seven.

Drawing 3D Shapes Revise the differences between pyramids and prisms and students. Students complete the sentence. The differences between pyramids and prisms are Using BLM 3. They cut out the shape first, then draw the shape beside the cut out. They then write the name and add the number of edges, faces and corners/vertices in books. Extension Group go ahead and do on own while rest of class stay together.

Maths Focus By the end of the lesson I will be able to: Describe and identify the nets of prisms, pyramids, cylinders and cones. Counting With their counting buddy count forwards by seven.

Nets Divide students into groups of four. Hand each group a net. Students need to cut out the net and complete these answers on a piece of A3 paper. Complete for Cone, Square Pyramid, Pentagonal Pyramid, Cube, Cylinder, Triangular Prism rectangular Prisms. Copy each net twice, do 1 together as a class and the other students do in their groups. Name of the shape: Sketch of the shape: Number of edges: Number of corners: Number of faces: 2D shapes that make up the 3D object. Each group then presents their information to the class. Extra nets for students who finish early.

Nets Revise work on nets. Complete BLM 5.

Maths Focus By the end of the lesson I will be able to: Recognise the cross section of prisms, pyramids, cylinders and cones. Compare and describe the features of prisms, pyramids, cylinders, cones and spheres. Counting With their counting buddy count forwards by seven.

Cross Sections Using play dough students construct 3D objects. Students then predict what the cross section will look like and then cut with plastic knife and see the result. Do for most common shapes. Discuss the results. Complete BLM 6 Cross Sections
