Cube arrangements from different views

Match a 3D cube arrangement with its front, side, or plan view

What you'll learn

  1. 1

    Imagine a tower made of 4 cubes. 🧱 You can see it from the front, the side, and the top — each view looks different!

  2. 2

    If you look at a single cube from the top, what shape do you see?

  3. 3

    Here's a cube arrangement. 🟦 The front view shows 3 cubes stacked tall. The side view shows 2 cubes side by side. The top view shows an L-shape.

  4. 4

    Let's work out the top view of this cube tower together. 🧠

  5. 5

    Build this cube arrangement: 3 cubes in a row, with 1 cube on top of the middle one. Then show me the front view.

  6. 6

    For a tower of 3 cubes stacked on top of each other, what does the side view look like?

  7. 7

    If the front view shows 2 cubes side by side and the side view shows 3 cubes stacked, how many cubes are there in total? (Hint: it's a 3D shape!)
