Sample problems
- Build a tower using 2 cubes. Draw or tell which solids you used.
- Use the same 2 cubes in a touching row. What changed?
- Add a cone roof to your 2-cube tower. Name all the solids.
- Build a train with 2 cubes and one rectangular prism. Show each part.
Common mistakes to watch for
- Build it or draw it. Tell how you know.
The answer key explains each one, so you can tell what a wrong answer means.
How to use this set
- Teach with the slides (about 15 minutes): a warm-up, the big ideas, a “spot the slip” challenge, Mr DJ’s worked example, and a pick-your-pepper round on whiteboards. Or watch the video together.
- Practice with the worksheet. Everyone does Mild and Medium, then climbs to Spicy and Extra Spicy.
- Check understanding with the exit ticket, and send the homework home.
- Mark with the answer key — each answer shows the steps and the most likely mistake. The slides’ teacher notes are in the key too.
