 Math: Constructing Solid Shapes

• We will discuss how some blocks are able to stack on top of one another and which ones will stack.

•Students will help determine which shapes will roll, stack, and slide.

• We will start by rolling the sphere to a few friends and then try to roll the cube, cylinder, and cone and discuss why the cube doesn’t roll.

• We will then move on to sliding a cube over to a friend and then attempt to slide the cone, cylinder, and sphere. We will point out how the cylinder and cone can only slide on their FACE.

• Lastly, they will explore with stacking. The kids help determine which solid shapes will stack. Point out how the cone and cylinder only stack on their faces as well and discover why the sphere is unable to stack.
