How are they similar?
I have 2 circular bases and I can roll.
What is the cylinder?
This 3D shape has 2 flat bases and a curved surface. It can be stacked or rolled.
What is a cylinder?
What is the difference between a cone and a sphere?
One 3D shape doesn't have any faces, and the other one has one face.
Has 2 bases and a curved surface.
Cylinder
I don't have any vertices or faces, but if you were going bowling, you would definitely want me there!
What is a sphere?
This 3D shape has 6 faces that are all the same size. It also has 12 edges. It is a good choice for stacking because it has way more than 2 faces.
What is a cube?
What is the difference between a cube and a rectangular prism?
One 3D shape only has square faces, the other has square and rectangular faces.
This 3D shape has 5 faces, 4 triangular and 1 square.
What is a square pyramid?
You may not be able to roll me, but if you were going camping in a tent you need this 3D shape!
What is a triangular prism?
Name 3 attributes of a square based pyramid. (Hint: how many faces, vertices, and edges)
It has 5 faces, it has 5 vertices, it has 8 edges.
What is the difference between a pyramid and a triangular prism?
One comes to a point at the top and the other doesn't.
With only 1 flat base, I'm not the best choice for stacking.
What is a cone?
This 3D shape has rectangular faces and square faces.
What is a rectangular prism?
What is the difference between the triangular prism and the cube?
One 3D shape has 6 vertices and triangular faces, the other shape has 8 vertices and only square faces.
Has 5 faces, 9 edges, and 6 vertices.
Triangular prism
I have way more than 2 faces...in fact, I have 6. 2 of my faces are the same size, and the other 4 match too. My shape makes me ideal for stacking.
What is a rectangular prism?
This 3D shape has 4 triangular faces and 5 vertices.
What is a square-based pyramid?
What is the difference between a cylinder and a sphere?
One has flat surfaces(bases) and the other doesn't.
