Geoblocks
Geoblock sets typically include rectangular and triangular prisms. They do not typically include spheres, cones, or cylinders. When these additional shapes are required, solid shapes are indicated alongside geoblocks in the required materials. The tool is still called geoblocks to keep things simple for students.
None
Students have free exploration time with geoblocks.

None
Students lay out four to six solid shapes for both partners to see. One student secretly chooses a shape and describes it to their partner, who uses the clues to guess the shape.

None
Students take turns reaching into a bag and feeling a solid shape, without looking. They guess the shape and show it to their partner. Together, they make sure the guess matches the shape from the bag.
