Shapes and Spaces for Upper Primary

Book Description

This photocopy masters book is designed tocomplement the spatial math component of the curriculum. It provides a basicintroduction to new concepts as well as activities that will consolidate theskills and ideas associated with 2D and 3D shapes.

The book contains a set of networks forconstructing models of prisms, pyramids and various polyhedra. Ideally, thesenets should be copied onto card to allow students to make a solid shape thatwill last for the duration of this unit of math.

Specific activities include identifyingtraversable networks, studying the properties and features of 2D and 3D shapes,exploring reflectional and rotational symmetry, looking at cross sections of 3Dshapes and creating tessellations with a number of regular and irregular 2Dshapes.

It is intended that the activities be completedsequentially as certain learning concepts need to be mastered in order tocomplete some of the later activities. Also, it is assumed that the ideas inthis book will be explored in class prior to completing the activities as theyare not designed as a complete math program.
