      A nice activity for getting pupils to look at shapes and finding the properties for it by matching. Something different to copying down properties into exercise books.

    • This is a rich Venn Diagram activity on properties of 3D shapes, including faces, edges, etc.

      To access all the Venn Diagram activities in this collection, as well as teaching notes, please visit: http://www.mrbartonmaths.com/venn.htm

      Here is why I love Venn Diagram activities so much:

      1) Students can always make a start. If they can think of a number/expression/object or whatever it might be, it has to go in one of the regions on the diagram, so they are up and running
      2) The more regions student find, the more challenging the task gets, which adds a nice element of differentiation
      3) They are incredibly versatile, and can be used for almost all maths topics for all ages and abilities
      4) They are easy to tweak by simply changing one of the circle labels if you find they are too difficult/easy
      5) Students can create their own as an extension task

      I hope you and your students enjoy them.

      Excellent idea to encourage some thought about definitions of various 3D shapes. Thanks for sharing. I've looked at two or three of your Venn Diagram activities and they are all very good.
