3D - Spatial Development - Deductive Series - Part 2 of 3 - FREE
This affords a vehicle for teachers to use for developing 3D spatial skills - it is part 2 of 3 - Deductive Rectilinear Spatial Development.
As with Part 1, this appears difficult and in the latter cases of the problems, it is a mental puzzle. However, I used to MODEL and work these with my self-contained 5th grade class, and they can do it - highly recommend using interlocking 2 cm cube blocks with the mat - manipulative - so the kiddos can mentally visualize the process.

3D - Spatial Development - Creative Series - Part 3 of 3 - FREE
This is the last part of the 3 part series.
It is the creative process - alternating between inductive and deductive spatial reasoning. It is in rectilinear development, but it will afford students the ability to mentally view in all three dimensions - mentally.
These look difficult...and some are. However, with small amounts of practice, students adapt and excel. These exercises are really handy for high academic students in need of challenging individual projects - and GATE and STEM.
