Notice and Wonder: What Is That Shape?
What do you notice? What do you wonder?
Student Section Summary
We named and drew shapes, based on their numbers of sides and corners. We drew shapes with different side lengths.
- A triangle is a shape with 3 sides and 3 corners
- A quadrilateral is a shape with 4 sides and 4 corners.
- A pentagon is a shape with 5 straight sides and 5 corners.
- A hexagon is a shape with 6 straight sides and 6 corners.
We described solid shapes, based on the number and shape of their faces. A face is a flat side of a solid shape. For example, a cube is a solid shape with 6 square faces that are the same size.
