What are views and grids?
An object can look different from the top, the front and the side. A bottle looks like a circle from the top and a rectangle from the front. A grid is made of rows (across) and columns (up and down), so we can name every square, like Row 2, Column 3.
From a train 🚂 window you see the front of houses, but a bird flying above sees their roofs: that is the top view!
Views to know
| Object | Top view | Front view |
|---|---|---|
| 🍼 Bottle | circle | rectangle |
| 🍦 Cone | circle | triangle |
| 🎲 Dice | square | square |
| 📕 Book | rectangle | rectangle |
How to find a square on a grid
- Count the rows up from the bottom.
- Count the columns across from the left.
- Say the row first, then the column: Row 2, Column 3.
- To move, go left, right, up or down, one square at a time.
