'3D shapes: name from diagram' for 3rd grade
3rd grade / Shapes / Identifying shapes / 3D shapes: name from diagram
Identify 3-dimensional shapes from diagrams
This topic helps you learn the names of many 3D shapes. The shapes in the topic are described below
- Sphere: A sphere is a round shape that looks like a ball. It is completely symmetrical, which means that every part of it looks the same. Examples of spheres include a tennis ball or the Earth (nearly).
- Cylinder: A cylinder is a shape that is shaped like a tin can. It has two flat, circular faces (called bases) that are the same size, and a curved body that connects the two bases. Examples of cylinders include a can of soup or a paper towel roll.
- Cone: A cone is a shape that looks like an ice cream cone or a party hat. It has a round base that connects to a point at the top. The sides of the cone slant inwards as they go up. Examples of cones include a traffic cone or a party hat.
- Triangular Prism: A triangular prism is a shape that has two triangular faces and three rectangular faces. It looks like a triangle that has been stretched out. Examples of triangular prisms include the Toblerone chocolate bar or the old type of tent.
- Square based pyramid: A square based pyramid is like the Great Pyramid of Giza or a pyramid-shaped cake. It has a square base and four triangular faces that meet at a point (called the apex) at the top.
- Cube: A cube is like a Rubik's Cube or a six-sided dice. It has six square faces that are the same size. The edges where the faces meet are also all the same length.
- Cuboid: A cuboid is like a cereal box or a brick. It has six rectangular faces like a cube but unlike the cube, the faces can be different sizes.
This topic shows you diagrams of different 3D shapes and you have to name them correctly. You may have noticed that the cube is a special type of cuboid where all the faces are the same sized square. This is true for a few of the shapes in this toic. You should always go with the most specific name, so if it is a cube go with cube even though cuboid is also technically correct.
With our quick math tests you will be revising "3D shapes: name from diagram" in 2 simple steps. The math in our tests consists of 20 questions that ask you to identify the names of these three-dimensional (3D) shapes in various orientations.
These math tests are designed to round off your learning experience here at Free Math Games by testing whether you can correctly recognize the math you have learned (in the multiple choice test) and that you can correctly enter the correct answers (in the writing test).
Make sure you have chosen the correct topic before starting! Although these tests are timed, try to relax and concentrate on getting the answers right at first - later you can try the tests again more quickly.
The two types of tests are:
- A multiple choice quiz to check your recall of the math
- A writing test to check your math for the selected topic
Key features of our math tests include:
- You can do these tests at home (or at school) without the help of a teacher
- You can repeat our tests as often as you need to improve your scores
- The tests check your comprehension for the topic
- The writing test also checks your ability to write / type math answers for the topic
- The tests use all the questions in a topic, so you will see questions that weren't in the lessons
You should expect to score 8+ / 10 in each test before you select a new topic. It is a good idea to repeat the test for each topic you do after two weeks to "reinforce" the math for that topic

How to use our math tests for
'3D shapes: name from diagram' for 3rd grade
- On the settings screen, select the test you would like to take.
- A new screen will open with information concerning the test.
- When you are ready to begin, click "Start the test".
Multiple choice test
This is a multiple choice activity similar to "What is it" in the Math lessons - you are shown a randomly selected question from the topic you are using. A selection of topic answers are displayed as a list. If you click/tap the speaker beside any answer you will hear the audio for that answer.
For each question, you must click on the answer that matches that question. If your answer is correct you will hear a bell and one star will be lit. The next question will be shown. If your answer is wrong, a box will open showing you what the correct answer was.
The test is timed, and the clock starts when you click the Start button. The clock stops when you click your final answer. At the end of your test a screen will tell you how many of the questions you got right and how long you took to complete the test.
Writing test
The writing test checks whether you can type the correct answer using your keyboard. This test is also timed. You can do the test many times until you get a good score. To start the test, click on the "Writing test" sign in the navigation board, then click on the "Start the test" arrow.
A random problem from your selected topic is shown. Beneath the problem there is a white box into which you should type the answer. If you need a little help you can click on the "Help me" button for a tip. Only use the help if you really need to.
If you type the answer correctly your device will automatically light a star. If you have entered your answer and no star lights up, click on the tick or press Enter to check your answer. When you have tried all the questions, a screen will show you how many questions you answered correctly and how long it took.
* Try to score 8 out of 10 in both test before you choose a new topic *
* It is OK to do the tests many times if you need to *
