What children learn in Level 58
- Some shapes are flat, like a drawing. Some are solid: you can pick them up and hold them. This is a cube, like a number cube.
- This is a sphere. It's round all over, like a ball. A sphere can roll!
- This is a cylinder, like a can. Its top and bottom are flat circles.
- This is a cone, like an ice cream cone. It has a circle on the bottom and a point on top.
- Try it with a grown-up! Find a ball, a can, and a box at home. Which ones roll?
