Solid Shapes

Put your students' geometry skills to the test with this interactive math game from iKnowIt.com. Your second grade students will practice identifying solid shapes and their attributes in this digital math game. Here are the skills your class will work on as they go through the math lesson:

• Identify the solid shape as a rectangular prism, cube, pyramid, cone, sphere, and more.
• Identify how many corners and/or faces a three-dimensional shape has.
• Sort the solid shapes into a chart based on their type.

Questions in this online geometry activity are presented in multiple-choice format, fill-in-the-blank format, and drag-and-drop format.

As your second grade students work through this math game, plenty of helpful features are available to them. For example, students can click on the hint button if they get stuck on a question. The hint consists of a written or pictorial clue that will help them identify the solid shape without giving away the answer. When students get an answer wrong, a detailed explanation page will pop up on the screen, showing the right answer accompanied by an easy-to-understand explanation. Here are a few more handy features students can count on:

• Read-Aloud Button – Students can click on the speaker icon in the upper-left corner of their practice screen to hear the math question read out loud to them in a clear voice. This feature is a great resource for ESL/ELL students and auditory learners.
• Progress-Tracker – Students can check out the progress-tracker in the upper-right corner of their practice screen to see how many math questions they have answered out of the total number of questions in the math lesson.
• Score-Tracker – Students can also view the score-tracker if they want to see how many points they have earned so far for solving math problems correctly.

All these features have been designed to help your second grade students achieve more in their math practice.
