About This Worksheet
This hard-level worksheet contains 18 problems designed for 2nd Grade students practicing 3d shapes and attributes. Hard worksheets feature challenging problems including multi-step questions, missing values, and real-world applications to push students further.
Studying 3D shapes connects geometry to the physical world and builds spatial reasoning. The vocabulary of faces, edges, and vertices prepares students for surface area and volume in middle school.
- Identify 3D shapes: cube, rectangular prism, cone, cylinder, sphere, pyramid
- Describe 3D shapes using faces, edges, and vertices
- Match 3D shapes to real-world objects
- Count faces, edges, and vertices for each 3D solid
- Compare and contrast 3D shapes by their structural features
How to Solve: Worked Example
- A cylinder looks like a can.
- It has a flat circle on top and a flat circle on the bottom.
- That's 2 flat faces (plus 1 curved surface around the sides).
