3D shape properties- PowerPoint 40-60 months This powerpoint can be used to support the teaching of ‘Shape, space and measure’ targeted towards the 40-60 month age band. www.earlybirdyeducation.com

Teaching tips: This can be used to teach basic properties of 3D shapes. Look at each shape and talk about their properties. Why not get the children to identify each property to real 3D shapes as you go along? www.earlybirdyeducation.com
