Identifying 3d shapes worksheets

First grade sheets drop the flat-or-solid warm-up and grow the solid set: rectangular prisms and pyramids join cubes, spheres, cones, and cylinders. Each problem shows one solid drawn in wireframe with dashed hidden edges and three names to circle.

By grade

What students need to know

Solid shapes take up space. Name the whole solid, not just the flat face you can see.

This skill runs from kindergarten through 2nd grade. Pick a grade above for level-matched sentences, teaching notes, and worksheets.

Identifying 3d shapes across the grades

Kindergarten

Kindergarten 3D shape worksheets mix two kinds of problems: most show a solid (cube, sphere, cone, or cylinder) with three names to circle, and the rest show a shape and ask whether it is flat or solid.

1st grade

First grade sheets drop the flat-or-solid warm-up and grow the solid set: rectangular prisms and pyramids join cubes, spheres, cones, and cylinders. Each problem shows one solid drawn in wireframe with dashed hidden edges and three names to circle.

2nd grade

Second grade sheets use the full set of six solids (cube, sphere, cone, cylinder, rectangular prism, and pyramid) with trickier name choices side by side, like cube against rectangular prism. The circle-the-name format stays the same.
