thinking backwards!!!

I like to make overheads of the nets of solid figures and have the students sift through their bucket of solid wooden shapes and hold up the solid for the net I have placed on the overhead. They LOVE this challenge!! (I would attach a sample - but I do not know how to attach word documents from my computer!!!!)
A good follow up to try the next day is giving them clues. And have them again hold up the answer to your clues. ie:
1. I have 5 faces, 6 vertices, and 9 edges. 2 of my faces are triangles and the rest are rectangles. What solid shape am I?
2. I have 5 vertices and 5 faces. | |
4 faces are triangles and the other is a rectangle. What solid shape am I?
3. I have no edges, no faces, and no vertices. What solid shape am I?
Hope that helps some!!!
