Extend your children's reasoning and problem-solving skills using this Year 2 Pyramids Investigation resource pack.

With two different questions to work through, children will need to use and apply their knowledge and understanding of the properties of shape to help them explore pyramids.

This resource includes a PowerPoint which can be used with children and a teacher guide to help give teaching staff a starting point with prompt questions and possible resources they may need. This resource is suitable for use as part of small group work.


Curriculum Objectives

  • Identify and describe the properties of 3-D shapes, including the number of edges, vertices and faces
