Use this geometry exercise with your third graders to practice recognizing the characteristics of a cylinder and finding real-life examples of the three-dimensional shape. For an added challenge, see just how many different shapes your students can name!

Need a refresher course on 3-d shapes? Kids finish the table by labeling or drawing each shape, then write how many faces, sides, and vertices each one has.
