Learning about 2D and 3D shapes

We are learning all about shapes.
We talked about 2D shapes: circle, square, rectangle and triangle. 
We talked about 3D shapes: cube, sphere, cuboid, triangular prism, cone, triangular pyramid, square pyramid, hexagonal prism, cylinder.
We used the boxes of shapes to talk about our shapes.  We counted sides and corners, talked about big and small, thick and thin, colours, whether a shape rolls or not, and what 2D shapes can be found in 3D shapes.
