Cube Nets
See if you can predict which of these nets form into a cube. Make your prediction and then watch the animation to see if you were right.
Pienado
A 2D shapes adventure game where your mission is to plug the holes in the forcefield. This game can help develop spacial awareness.
Pattern Shapes
Try making patterns, tessellations or pictures with shapes. Explore geometry and fractions or investigate symmetry. Great for demonstrating protractors and measuring angles in shapes.
Shadow Shapes
Match shadows to their shapes.
Sorting Shapes on a Venn Diagram
Sort a variety of 2D shapes on a Venn diagram. Sort by one or two conditions. The site works well on an interactive whiteboard.
Symmetry Shapes
A teaching resource for demonstrating symmetry on IWBs and iPads.
Shape Escape
Do you know the names of 2-D shapes and their properties? See if you know how many sides and vertices they have and if you can recognise correct lines of symmetry.
Key Stage 3 Bitesize - Maths
Help is at hand for maths revision for Key Stage 3 Maths SATs. The site has resources for teachers too.
Co-ordinates - Reasoning about Position and Shape
An interactive site where you find the missing coordinates on a given shape, reflected in a mirror line, or the midpoints of straight lines. You can choose to find coordinates in the first quadrant, or all four quadrants.
Geometric Solids
A teaching tool, which works well on an interactive whiteboard, which is good for learning about solid shapes and their properties. Explore the number of faces, edges and vertices. There are lesson plans which demonstrate how the tool can be used.
