Three pages of guided notes to help students name polyhedrons and construct the correct surface area formula for prisms and pyramids.

Page 1

• students name polyhedrons by identifying the shape of its base(s) and lateral faces

Page 2

• students draw the shapes that make up the polyhedron, then replace the shapes with their area formulas, substitute in the measurements and solve
• classify triangles by their side lengths

Page 3

• focuses on the three types of triangular prisms (equilateral, isosceles, scalene)
• students will draw the base triangle and label its side lengths, which affects how many congruent lateral faces the formula will have
• students construct the surface area formula by drawing the shapes that make up the polyhedron, then replace the shapes with their area formulas, substitute in the measurements and solve

Answer key included!
