Block Beasties - Task Cards

Teach Starter Publishing
PDF | 12 pages | Years: F - 3

A set of 36 low colour block figure task cards separated into three levels.

Use this teaching resource when exploring 3D geometric shapes and their properties with the students in numeracy. This resource includes three difficulty levels for the construction of building block figures:

  • Colour animal shapes with block boundaries
  • Animal shape blocks in white with boundary outlines
  • Animal shape blocks only showing faces.

Students will love to construct and explore these animal block figures. Challenge them to see if they can create them when using the harder level task cards.

    These are really cool! I love the idea of using LEGO in the classroom and have been looking for something like this for a while. Thanks!
