Florida B.E.S.T. MA.1.GR.1.4
The Standard
Given a real-world object, identify parts that are modeled by two- and three-dimensional figures. Figures are limited to semi-circles, triangles, rectangles, squares and hexagons, spheres, cubes, rectangular prisms, cones and cylinders.

What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students examine familiar objects and pictures, then name the flat or solid figures that model their parts. They connect each figure name to a specific part.
What Mastery Looks Like
- Students correctly label flat and solid figures within pictures or objects. They can point to the matching part and name the figure without relying on color or size.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may call every solid figure a shape without naming it. They often confuse squares with rectangles, cubes with rectangular prisms, and cones with cylinders.
How to Assess It
- Display a rocket with a cone nose, cylinder body, and semicircle window. Ask students to label the figure that models each part.

Ways to Teach It
Build a toy robot from cubes, rectangular prisms, cylinders, and spheres, then attach figure name cards to each part.
Show a castle picture and ask, "Which parts look like rectangles, triangles, cylinders, and cones, and what attributes support each match?"
Play Figure Match: students draw an object card, name one modeled part and its figure, then keep the card for a correct match.
Walk around the classroom with clipboards; students sketch a tissue box, globe, and door, then label the figure modeled by each object.
