Identify shapes as two-dimensional (lying flat) or three-dimensional (“solid”).

Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Sort two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes.
  • Understand that shapes have dimensions (feeling the sides of a solid, feeling flat shapes).
Representation:
  • Understand the following concepts two-dimensional and three-dimensional.
  • Understand the following vocabulary of dimension or related terms (e.g., flat, solid).
  • Given a visual of a shape, identify if it is two-dimensional or three-dimensional.

Cluster: Identify and describe shapes (squares, circles, triangles, rectangles, hexagons, cubes, cones, cylinders, and spheres). (Additional Cluster)

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
