As part of our work on 2D and 3D shape, we carried out shape investigations. We split into groups for 3 different learning activities.

1. We used modelling materials to create 3d shapes and identified the properties of each using correct mathematical vocabulary.
2. We identified the properties of 2D shapes including parallel and perpendicular lines, right angles and acute and obtuse angles. We then used these properties to sort our shapes using a enn diagram.
3. We investigated nets of 3d shapes by recognising the number and shape of faces. We discovered that there are many different ways to draw the net of a cube.
