This medium worksheet sharpens second graders' grasp of shape attribute vocabulary. Part A fill-in-the-blank covers nine ideas including that a 2D shape is flat with no thickness, a cube has 6 same-size faces, a triangular prism has 5 faces in all, and a circle has 0 sides and 0 vertices. Students also learn that a flat surface is called a face, where two faces meet is an edge, and a corner point is a vertex. Part B matches cube, triangular prism, cone, and rectangular prism to their face counts. Precise vocabulary now makes upper-grade geometry far less confusing.
