[PDF] 3d shape facts ks2

3D shapes have different properties:
  • Faces - A face is a flat surface on a 3D shape. For example a cube has 6 faces.
  • Edges - An edge is where two faces meet. For example a cube has 12 edges.
  • Vertices - A vertex is a corner where edges meet (the plural is vertices). For example a cube has 8 vertices.

  • What is a fact about 3D shapes?

    The edges of a 3D shape are where the faces meet. The corners of a 3D shape are called vertices. Vertex is the singular of vertices. A regular 3D shape's faces are all equal.

  • What is a 3D shape explanation for kids?

    A 3D shape has three dimensions. Therefore, unlike a 2D shape, it's not flat. 3D shapes are measured by length, width and depth.
