This document is a mathematics worksheet for third grade students on solid figures. It defines solid figures as three-dimensional shapes and provides examples of different solids like cubes, rectangular prisms, pyramids, cones, cylinders, and spheres. It lists their properties such as number of faces, vertices, and edges. Students are asked to identify these properties for different solids, identify solids from diagrams, and connect plane figures to make solid figures.

Lesson Objective: Use models to relate solid figures to plane figures.
Solid Figures
Definition: Solid shapes are three-dimensional shapes.
Solid shapes have faces, vertices, and edges.
For Example: In a cube there are:
8 vertices 6 faces 12 edges
We will study some solids and its properties:
