Describe Flat Faces on a Box
Name:
Date:
Today I am practising: distinguishing a solid object from one of its flat faces
1
Find a safe rectangular box. Point to one flat face and trace its boundary on paper.
2
What two-dimensional shape did you trace?
3
Find a different face. Trace it and compare its side lengths with the first.
4
Count the flat faces on a closed rectangular box.
5
Is the whole box a rectangle, or is a face a rectangle? Explain.
6
Draw a box-like object from your home and label one flat face.
- Use a clean empty box without sharp edges.
- Touch a flat face before tracing its two-dimensional boundary.
- Accept square faces as rectangles and distinguish them from the whole solid.
