1Find the shapes in the classroom that look like the following shapes and fill in the table with their names.
Shapes: Cylinder, Sphere, Cube, Cuboid, Cone
(a) Name the shape that you find the most.
(b) Name the shape that you find the least.
(c) Name the objects that are made up of more than one shape.Show solution
Sample answers for the table:
| Cylinder | Sphere | Cube | Cuboid | Cone |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Water bottle | Ball | Dice | Chalk box | Birthday cap |
| Drum | Globe | Sugar cube | Brick | Ice cream cone |
| Pencil holder | Marble | Wooden block | Book | Funnel |
(Students should fill in objects they actually find in their own classroom.)
(a) Shape found the most: Cuboid — because books, boxes, chalk boxes, desks, and bricks are all cuboids.
(b) Shape found the least: Cone — cone-shaped objects are not very common in a classroom.
(c) Objects made up of more than one shape:
- A sharpened pencil (cylinder + cone)
- A table (cuboid top + cylindrical or cuboid legs)
- A water bottle with a cap (cylinder + cone or cylinder)
(Students should give examples from their own classroom.)

2Look at these shapes and follow the instructions:
- Circle the cubes.
- Put a tick against the shapes that are cones.
- Put a cross against the shapes that are cylinders.
- Draw a box around the cuboids.Show solution
Concept: We identify each shape by its properties:
- Cube – 6 equal square faces, 12 equal edges, 8 corners.
- Cone – 1 circular flat face, 1 curved surface, 1 apex (pointed top).
- Cylinder – 2 circular flat faces, 1 curved surface, no corners.
- Cuboid – 6 rectangular faces (may not all be equal), 12 edges, 8 corners.
Instructions to follow on the image:
- ⭕ Circle all shapes that are cubes.
- ✔ Tick all shapes that are cones.
- ✖ Cross all shapes that are cylinders.
- ☐ Draw a box around all shapes that are cuboids.
(Students should apply these markings directly on the shapes shown in their textbook image, identifying each shape by its properties as described above.)

3Name the shapes:
(a) with no edges.
(b) with only flat faces.
(c) with only curved faces.
(d) with both straight and curved edges.
(e) with both flat and curved faces.Show solution
Concept: Properties of 3-D shapes:
- Sphere – 0 edges, 0 flat faces, 1 curved surface.
- Cube/Cuboid – all flat (rectangular/square) faces, all straight edges.
- Cylinder – 2 flat circular faces + 1 curved surface; edges are curved circles.
- Cone – 1 flat circular face + 1 curved surface; 1 curved edge at the base.
(a) Shape with no edges:
A sphere has no edges and no corners — it is perfectly round.
(b) Shape with only flat faces:
All faces of a cube and cuboid are flat (square or rectangular).
(c) Shape with only curved faces:
A sphere has only one curved surface and no flat face.
(d) Shape with both straight and curved edges:
A cylinder has two circular (curved) edges. A cone has one circular (curved) edge at its base.
(e) Shape with both flat and curved faces:
A cylinder has 2 flat circular faces and 1 curved surface.
A cone has 1 flat circular face and 1 curved surface.
