3 Dimensional Objects

Three dimensional objects have edges, faces and corners. They have names like cubes, cones, pyramids, prisms, cylinders and spheres. Exactly where can you see these? We went on a mission to find some of these 3D objects in our playground. We found many cylinders. Everything from the posts holding up the bridges to the monkey bars and tubes protecting the chains on the climbing frame. Rectangular prisms were the steps on the fort and the pieces of wood on the bridge. We even saw some balls which are called spheres. We had to draw diagrams of these in our maths books and then describe them using the correct mathematical terms.
