Learning to count vertices is a very important skill towards identifying different 3D shapes. This Year 2 Count Vertices on 3D Shapes resource places that skill into a real-world context, through a mix of reasoning and problem-solving questions, and uses pictorial representations to consolidate children's understanding. The worksheet has also been differentiated so that the whole class can access the step. Alongside this, an answer sheet has been provided so that children can self or peer mark, or a supporting adult can mark if the worksheet is used as part of an intervention.


Curriculum Objectives

  • Compare and sort common 3-D shapes and everyday objects
  • Identify and describe the properties of 3-D shapes, including the number of edges, vertices and faces
