This Year 2 Count Vertices on 3D Shapes lesson covers the prior learning of counting vertices on 2D shapes, before moving onto the main skill of counting vertices on 3D shapes.
The lesson starts with a prior learning worksheet to check pupils’ understanding. The interactive lesson slides recap the prior learning before moving on to the main skill. Children can then practise further by completing the activities and can extend their learning by completing an engaging extension task.
National Curriculum Objectives
Mathematics Year 2: (2G2b) Identify and describe the properties of 3-D shapes, including the number of edges, vertices and faces
