Here are the names of the most common 3D shapes. When we talk about the properties of a shape we are looking at how many faces, edges and vertices it has. Here are the properties of a cube…

(If we are talking about just 1 corner it is called a vertex… when we have more than one they become vertices)

Try to find objects which match these shapes below around your home and write down the properties for each. You should be listing how many faces, vertices and edges it has just like the example above.
