The document provides instructions and a chart for students to complete a 3D scavenger hunt in their classroom. Students are tasked with identifying different 3D forms, including cubes, rectangular prisms, triangular prisms, spheres, pyramids, cones, and cylinders. For each object, they record properties like vertices, edges, and planes, name the real-world item, and sketch a visual clue. Vocabulary terms like shape, form, vertex, edge, and plane are defined.

Shape- a 2-dimensional area that is defined in some way. Height and width only
Form- objects having 3-dimensions. Height, width, and depth
Vertex (Vertices)- point where surfaces meet, corner
Edge- where 2 surfaces join (intersect)
Plane- a flat surface
