Four pages of Year 3 maths geometry practice. Pupils name 3-D shapes like the cube, cylinder and pyramid and count their faces, answer questions on right angles and turns, then match parallel, perpendicular, horizontal and vertical lines to pictures. An answer sheet is included. Aligned to four England National Curriculum properties of shapes objectives.
Geometry — properties of shapes
“Draw 2-D shapes and make 3-D shapes using modelling materials; recognise 3-D shapes in different orientations and describe them”
The shape detective section names and describes 3-D shapes by their faces.
Geometry — properties of shapes
“Identify right angles, recognise that two right angles make a half-turn, three make three quarters of a turn and four a complete turn; identify whether angles are greater than or less than a right angle”
The angles section asks both the turns question and the comparison.
Geometry — properties of shapes
“Identify horizontal and vertical lines and pairs of perpendicular and parallel lines.”
Line Safari matches all four line types to pictures.
Name pictured shapes and count how many faces each one has.
Questions like how many right angles make a half turn, plus classifying a drawn angle.
Match definitions of parallel, perpendicular, horizontal and vertical lines to images.
All answers in one place.
Unit recap
The three sections revisit shapes, angles and lines in one worksheet.
