National Curriculum Objectives

Mathematics Year 2: (2G2b) Identify and describe the properties of 3-D shapes, including the number of edges, vertices and faces

Differentiation for Year 2 Count Edges on 3D Shapes:

Varied Fluency
Developing Questions to support counting the number of edges on 3D shapes. All shapes presented in the same orientation and size. Perspective lines visible on all shapes.​
Expected Questions to support counting the number of edges on 3D shapes. All shapes presented in different orientations and sizes. Perspective lines visible on some shapes.​
Greater Depth Questions to support counting the edges on 3D shapes. All shapes presented in different orientations and sizes. No perspective lines visible on shapes and with some use of real-life objects.

Reasoning and Problem Solving
Questions 1, 4 and 7 (Problem Solving)
Developing Match the statement to the correct 3D shape. All shapes with visible perspective lines and presented in the same orientation and size.
Expected Match the statement to the correct 3D shape. All shapes without visible perspective lines and presented in the different orientations.
Greater Depth Match the statement to the correct 3D shape. All shapes presented as real-life objects.

Questions 2, 5 and 8 (Reasoning)
Developing Explain if a given statement is correct. Shapes with visible perspective lines and presented in the same orientation and size.
Expected Explain if a given statement is correct. Shapes without visible perspective lines and presented in the different orientations.
Greater Depth Explain if a given statement is correct. All shapes presented as real-life objects.

Questions 3, 6 and 9 (Reasoning)
Developing Identify a mistake that has been made when grouping 3D shapes. All shapes with visible perspective lines and presented in the same orientation and size.
Expected Identify a mistake that has been made when sorting 3D shapes. All shapes with visible perspective lines and presented in the different orientations.
Greater Depth Identify a mistake that has been made when sorting 3D shapes. Shapes without visible perspective lines and presented in the different orientations.
