Tasty 3D Shapes!

Our class has been looking at 3D Shapes.

3D Shapes have three things: vertices, faces and edges.

We decided to make our own shapes using marshmallows (vertices) and cocktail sticks (edges).

We think we might become architects after this lesson!!
We made shapesd such as cubes, square-based pyramids, triangle-based pryamids and traingluar prisms. It was so much fun!
