Full lesson	Create for a teacher a set of content for giving a lesson, beginning with the lesson plan. Each new block of materials must begin with an H1 heading (other subheaders must be H2, H3, etc). When you describe required pictures, write those descriptions in curly brackets, for example: {A picture of a triangle}

Lesson plan

Lesson Plan: 3D Shapes

Subject

Mathematics

Topic

3D Shapes

Grade/Age Group

Grade 3

Length of Lesson

30 minutes

Class Size

20 students

Objectives

• Students will identify and name basic 3D shapes (cube, sphere, cylinder, cone).
• Students will understand the properties of each shape (faces, edges, and vertices).
• Students will be able to differentiate between 2D and 3D shapes.
• Students will apply their knowledge by creating a simple collage of 3D shapes.

Materials

• 3D shape models (cube, sphere, cylinder, cone)
• Whiteboard and markers
• Worksheets with images of 3D shapes
• Glue, scissors, colored paper
• Classroom display board for shape collage

National Curriculum Standards

• Aligns with Common Core State Standards for Mathematics, specifically focusing on geometry: identifying and describing shapes and space.

Lesson Structure

Step Number	Step Title	Length	Details
1	Introduction	5 min	Begin with a brief discussion on shapes, asking students if they can name any 3D shapes. Show the 3D models to engage interest.
2	Direct Instruction	10 min	Explain the properties of each 3D shape using the models. Use the whiteboard to illustrate faces, edges, and vertices. Provide examples from real life.
3	Guided Practice	5 min	Hand out worksheets. Have students match images of 3D shapes with their names and properties (faces, edges, vertices). Walk around to assist.
4	Independent Activity	7 min	Students will use colored paper to create a collage of different 3D shapes. Encourage creativity while ensuring they clearly label each shape.
5	Wrap-up and Review	3 min	Recap the key properties of 3D shapes. Ask students to share what they included in their collages, briefly discussing each shape's properties.

Homework Assignment

• Students will complete a worksheet where they identify and draw at least three examples of 3D shapes found in their home environment.
• Homework will be collected and checked by the teacher without requiring students to present it in front of the class.
