Teaching guide
What students learn
Identify and describe basic 2D and 3D shapes and their attributes.
How to teach it
Sort a mixed pile of flat shapes and solid objects into two groups, then explain the rule: a 2D shape lies flat with no thickness; a 3D shape takes up space and you could hold it.
Worked example
I have 6 sides, just like a honeycomb cell. What shape am I?
Answer: hexagon
Generated and checked in code, so it is correct.
Watch out for
Confusing a picture of a shape (flat, on paper) with the solid object it represents, since a drawing of a cube is itself 2D.
