Instructions for Use

3-D Solidsallows your child to manipulate 3-D shapes and find out how many edges, vertices, and faces they have.

Click on either “Prisms” or “Pyramids” and then click on a shape you wish you see. Identify the parallel edges, parallel faces, perpendicular edges, and perpendicular faces for each shape.

 

Geometric Solids allows your child to learn about various geometric solids and their properties.

Manipulate and color each shape to explore the number of faces, edges, and vertices. Click “New Shape” to get another shape. For each shape identify the parallel edges, parallel faces, perpendicular edges, and perpendicular faces.
