Teaching guide
Compare the parallel cross-sections of objects and recognise how they relate to right prisms.
Sort and name 2D and 3D shapes by their properties (sides, angles, faces), then build up to perimeter (add the sides) and area (cover with unit squares).
Generated and checked in code, so it is correct.
Confusing perimeter and area, and judging a shape by its orientation rather than its properties.
Geometry worksheets
