3-D shapes that I know...

Today we took a look at 3-D shapes in math: a cube, cylinder, sphere, and a cone.  We did some exploring and learned that a cylinder and a sphere will roll and a cone and a cube will slide.  Some students predicted the cone would roll but when we tried it just spun around in a circle.  We determined that this was because the top is smaller than the bottom.  I played this fun (and catchy) 3-D shapes song and then at stations students worked on large posters to draw real life objects that are 2-D and 3-D shapes.
