What to Focus On

  • A model is a small copy of a real object.
  • Buildings can be made with blocks, boxes, bottles, or cans.
  • Qutub Minar is a World Heritage site.
  • A flattened open box is called the net of the box.
  • Folding along the dotted lines reconstructs the box.
  • A net shows the faces of a solid shape.
  • A cube is also a prism.
  • Prisms have two equal flat faces and joining faces.
  • Pyramids have one base and triangular faces meeting at one point.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

A cube is not a prism.

The triangle can change shape easily when pushed, just like a rectangle.

A rectangle and a square are completely different kinds of shapes with no close relation.

Memory Tips

The Qutub Minar is a World Heritage site and the tallest building made up of bricks

A net of a box

Two lines meeting at a point create an angle

Acute angle is less than a right angle
