Planes of Symmetry in 3D Shapes

 

Students learn how to identify the planes of symmetry in 3D shapes.

Later, learning progresses to identifying the planes of symmetry of more complex shapes using isometric paper.

Differentiated Learning Objectives
  • All students should be able to identify the planes of symmetry in a cube.
  • Most students should be able to identify the planes of symmetry in a solid shape using isometric paper.
  • Some students should be able to identify and sketch the planes of symmetry for any solid.
