Yenka 3D Shapes

Yenka 3D Shapes offers a collection of engaging lessons which teach about 2D and 3D geometry, along with a powerful modelling tool so you can modify them - or even create your own lessons from scratch.

To try it out yourself, you can get a free copy to use in school or at home.

• Experiment with 3D geometry - drag ready-made shapes or nets onto the screen, then resize or rotate them by dragging. Yenka offers a full library of 3D shapes, ready for you to use.

• Complete control over your model - change the 3D view, or the colours and textures of your shapes. Snap measurements onto them to read lengths, areas and combined volumes.

• Design 3D nets, and fold them - snap shapes like squares and triangles together: joined edges become hinges, and you can fold them by dragging corners. A range of ready-made nets help you get started, or you can unfold 3D shapes into their nets.

• Create your own activities - add questions, instructions or text to your models.

• View plans and elevations - pan, zoom and rotate your model to show a plan or elevations - in either a perspective or an isometric view.
