q. Super Solids Whole Class or Small Group
• Geometric Vocabulary reproducible (2 per student) (pg. 20)
• Super Solids reproducible (pg. 24)
• Make photocopies of the Geometric Vocabulary (2 per student) and the Super Solids (1 per student) reproducibles. Givestudents all three sheets and have them label the vocabulary topic Solids.
• Show each 3-dimensional solid as you discuss the geometric terms below. Guide students in completing the vocabularysheets. Have students add the completed pages to their Geometry Dictionary folder.
sphere a round 3-dimensional solid
cone a 3-dimensional solid with a circular base and acurved surface that meets at a point
cylinder a 3-dimensional solid with two congruent circles forits faces and a curved surface connecting them
cube a 3-dimensional solid with six congruent square faces
rectangular prism a 3-dimensional solid with rectangular faces and twocongruent rectangular bases
triangular prism a 3-dimensional solid with rectangular faces and twocongruent triangular bases
triangular pyramid a 3-dimensional solid with triangular faces and a trian-gular base

• Have students cut apart the eight picture cards and eight label cards from the Super Solids reproducible. Let small groupsof students use the cards to play the following games to practice identifying solids:
15-Second Match-Up-Line up the eight solids (or pictures of them) in a row. Across from them, line up the eight labelsin a mixed-up order. Take your time and match them up. Then repeat the activity and have a partner time you. Try tomatch them up in 15 seconds or less!
Concentration-Mix up the picture cards and the label cards and place them facedown in separate groups. Arrange theeight foam solids in a group (if they are available). The first player picks a label card, a picture card and a foam solid. If allthree match, the player keeps the set and takes another turn. If not, the player puts the pieces back facedown wherethey were and his or her turn is over. Play continues until all sets are matched up.

~• Students will identify, compare, analyze and classify 2- and 3-dimensional geometric shapes according to their properties.
~• Foam 3-dimensional solids
• Venn Diagrams-A and B reproducibles (pg. 25 and pg. 26)
• Scissors and glue
• Tell students you will be sorting the 3-dimensional solids by the shapes of their faces. Cut apart the shape labels andplace the circle label inside the 1-circle Venn diagram. Challenge students toidentify a solid that has at least one circular face. (cone, cylinder) Place eachof those solids inside the circle. Arrange the remaining solids around the out-side, explaining that only solids that meet the criteria can go inside the Venndiagram. Guide students as needed in understanding why the sphere belongsoutside the circle. (A face is a flat shape; a sphere does not have faces.)
• Model how to sort solids using the 2-circle Venn diagram. Place the rectangleand triangle labels in the non-overlapping sections of the circles. Passouteach of the 8 solids in a set to different students. Direct each student to studyhis solid to see if it has any faces that are rectangles or triangles. Point outthat a square is a type of rectangle. Invite students to place their solids insideor outside the Venn diagram in the corresponding sections and to explain whythey go there.
• Display the 3-circle Venn diagram and invite students to explain how it works,correcting students as needed. Place three labels in the diagram and model afew examples of where solids would be placed and viJhy.
• Give the group of students an entire set of 8 solids. Have students worktogether to create their own 1-circle, 2-circle and 3-circle Venn diagrams. Forvariety, have one half of the group arrange a Venn diagram and remove thelabel(s). The remaining half studies the completed diagram and adds the miss-ing label(s).
• Have each student choose one sorting per Venn diagram to record and turnin. Direct students to glue the categories in place and to write the name ofeach solid in the appropriate place in the Venn diagram.

• Make photocopies of the Solids Chart reproducible and give oneto each student.
• Passaround the 3-dimensional solids. Teach or review the termi-nology in the cube and cylinder diagrams at the top of the repro-ducible-face, edge, vertex (plural form is vertices), curved edgeand curved surface. Invite students to point out examples ofeach term on the solids they are holding.
• Read aloud the directions and the chart headings on the repro-ducible. Choose one of the solids, answer the correspondingchart questions, and model how to fill in the row.
• Direct students to complete the chart, working as a group orindividually. Then have them work in pairs or small groups tocomplete the Think About It! section. When everyone has fin-ished, compare and discuss the results.
Extension:
• Riddles-Let students use the information they have learned towrite riddles about solids. Post the riddles at a math center or ona bulletin board. Challenge students to answer them withoutreferring to their charts.
• Hunting for Solids-For a homeworkactivity, challenge students to find 20 real-life examples of the solids (basketball, can,tent, and so on).

2. Study the polyhedrons in the chart. Compare the number of faces to the number of edges
and to the number of vertices. What a,'~ two patterns that you see? _
There are always more edges than faces or vertices.Pyramids have an equal number of faces and vertices.
3. The Swiss mathematician Leonhard Euler found this pattern in polyhedrons: F + V = E + 2.
The number of faces (F) plus the number of vertices (V) equals the number of edges (E) plus
2. Does that pattern work for your five polyhedrons?~y_es~ _
