Worksheet Overview

The following activity is a practice exercise to help you measure your success under timed conditions.

If you are unsure of an answer, move on to the next question.

You should come back to questions you found difficult at the end if you have time.

 

Look at the 3D shape below:

 

 

Imagine the separate blocks that are needed to build this shape.

Which group of building blocks below would correctly make this shape?

 

a) 

 

Imagine the separate blocks that are needed to build this shape.

Which group of building blocks below would correctly make this shape?

 

a)         b)         c)         d) 

 

For this type of question, it is a good idea to look at the options and imagine yourself putting the blocks together to make the shape above.

Some will obviously not work and others will need more time to consider.

Remember that the blocks can be rotated and moved into different positions.

 

Did you choose option a?

The other options cannot be put together to make the target shape above.

 

Now it's time to begin this practice exercise.

Good luck!
