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
