Drawing the plan and elevations of a solid

Maths

In the prior unit, pupils considered different views of a 3-D shape in order to understand how to calculate the surface area and volume. In this unit, pupils will be considering a 3-D shape from different viewpoints in order to draw the side and front elevations as well as the plan.
