Shapes and Forms Worksheet
Artist's tip (Flat or solid?): 2D shapes: circle, square, triangle, rectangle, oval, star. 3D forms: sphere, cube, cone, cylinder, pyramid, cuboid. Ball → sphere, dice → cube, party hat → cone, candle → cylinder, brick → cuboid. Geometric = exact (square, hexagon); organic = natural (leaf, cloud, puddle). A cube has 6 faces, 8 corners and 12 edges.
