Common Mistakes to Watch For

• Mixing up 2D and 3D shapes by calling a sphere a circle or a cube a square. Remind learners that 3D shapes are solid and you can pick them up.
• Thinking a cylinder has only one circle face when it actually has two. Always check both the top and the bottom of cylinder objects like cans.
• Counting cube faces as four or eight instead of six. Walk around a real block together, touching each square side once to count carefully along.
