Roll the dice and move around the game board, which features mini worlds taken from the other digi-games. From snowy mountains to deep oceans, each roll offers a new challenge and the chance to rack up points. Game on!

In this version, students are shown a variety of 3D objects and asked to count how many faces each one has. Whether it’s a cube, cone, or pyramid, students build geometry knowledge by identifying and analysing the flat surfaces of each shape, developing strong visual reasoning skills along the way.

Let’s Roll – 3D Objects: How Many Faces? is perfect for Year 2–4 students exploring the properties of 3D shapes. Use it during geometry lessons, as part of your rotations, or for individual practice with the QR code.

Key Learning Outcomes:

• ✅ Identify common 3D objects
• ✅ Count the number of faces on each 3D shape
• ✅ Strengthen geometry vocabulary and shape awareness
• ✅ Develop visual reasoning and spatial thinking skills
• ✅ Engage in fast-paced, point-based gameplay to reinforce learning

How to Play:

1. Students roll the dice and move their token along the themed game board.
2. When they land on a space, they are shown a 3D object and asked to calculate how many faces it has.
3. Each correct answer earns coins—different values based on the colour and size of the space.
4. Special events may appear to boost excitement and challenge students further.
5. The player with the most points at the end of the game wins!

Ideas for Classroom Use:

• 💡 Use during geometry units focused on the features of 3D shapes
• 💡 Great for Year 2–4 students developing shape fluency
• 💡 Pair with hands-on 3D shape manipulatives to count faces, edges, and vertices
• 💡 Follow up with a student-led task to create posters or flashcards featuring 3D shapes and their properties

Top Teacher Tips:

• 💛 Let students personalise their experience by choosing from six characters before the game begins
• 💛 Select the number of players or teams at the start of the game to suit individual, paired, or group play
• 💛 Send the QR code home for students to play as a homework or revision task

Let’s Roll – 3D Objects: How Many Faces? transforms shape recognition into an exciting race through colourful worlds—making geometry interactive, visual, and fun!
