Description

A good way to introduce 3D shapes is by starting from the very beginning, that is, simply by exposing the flashcards with the 3D shapes to the child and help them become familiar with the shape. One may go further by exposing the child to the shape name and later on test the matching skills and the recognition skills of the child on this topic. This pack of flashcards was created to help educators and parents/guardians to introduce the topic to a child even when the child still has yet no knowledge of the topic just like we do with any other pack.

The shapes covered by this pack are the following:

• cuboid
• cube
• cone
• sphere
• cylinder (circle and oval based)
• prism (triangular, hexagonal, diamond-shaped, pentagonal, heart-shaped, crescent-shaped, star-shaped, arrow-shaped, cross-shaped, parallelogram, trapezium cross-sections and rhombohedron)
• pyramids (rectangle-based, pentagon-based, square-based, hexagon-based, and triangle-based)

The pack contains 26 pages of 7 different kinds of flashcards, covering all the shapes mentioned above. It also helps the child understand how to write the shape names correctly as well as properly in a given line. Included, there is also an additional activity which includes a social story on the mentioned topic. Should you wish to purchase the social story on its own, you may find it here.

You may want to check out the pack 3D Shapes Worksheets which contains exercises to help out in getting to know whether the child has understood the topic, and if they do, it definitely serves as good practice!
