Year 1 geometry resources 

Aligned with the maths mastery approach, this Year 1 | Recognise 3D Shapes Lesson Presentation is fully editable and designed for the Year 1 maths curriculum to cover the following curriculum objectives:

Topic: Geometry: Shapes

This lesson practises recognising and naming 3D shapes. 

Small Steps: Recognise and name 3D shapes

NC Links: Recognise and name common 3d shapes.

Ready-to-progress Criteria: 1G1 – Recognise common 2d and 3d shapes in different orientations, and know that rectangles, triangles, cuboids and pyramids are not always similar to each other.

Previous Experience – See, explore and discuss models of common 2D and 3D shapes with varied dimensions and presented in different orientations.

Future applications – Describe properties of shape. Categorise shapes. Identify similar shapes.

TAF Statements: Working Towards – Name some common 2D and 3D shapes from a group of shapes or from pictures of the shapes and describe some of their properties.

Working At – Name and describe properties of 2D and 3D shapes

Greater Depth – describe the similarities and differences of 2D and 3D shapes, using their properties.
