Circle the Cylinders in Each Row
Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher
"Circle the Cylinders in Each Row" is written for Kindergarten (Ages 5-6), and it covers Common Core K.G.A.2. If your little one is a year younger but already steady on shapes, the page still works. You may just need to read the instructions out loud. And if they are older and 3d shapes never quite stuck, this is a short review rather than busywork.


Kindergarten math worksheet: circle every cylinder in 6 rows, standing up or lying down, then write how many cylinders per row. Answer key included. Part of our 3d shapes collection. Aligned to Common Core standards.
How do I use this worksheet?
Set out a ball, a block, a can and a party hat and let your child hold each one while you say its name. Then read the Instructions aloud and have your child point to each solid before they color, circle or count.
What students will practice
- Students will find every cylinder in 6 rows, whether it stands up or lies on its side.
- Students will tell a cylinder apart from other solid shapes in the same row.
- Students will circle the cylinders in each row, count them and write the number in the box.

What does this worksheet teach?
⌄
Circle every cylinder in 6 rows, standing up or lying down, then write how many cylinders per row. The directions on the page read: Look at the cylinder at the top. Circle every cylinder in each row. Then, count the cylinders in the row and write the number in the box. An answer key is included.
Can I use this 3d shapes worksheet for homeschool or classroom?
⌄
Yes, both. We made it for Kindergarten shapes, and the page works the same whether it lands on a kitchen table or a center rotation. At home, most families go through it together and talk the answers out loud, and that talking is where most of the learning happens with 3d shapes. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.
What 3D shapes do kindergarteners learn?
⌄
Kindergarteners name the cube, sphere, cone and cylinder. CCSS K.G.A.2 asks them to name a shape whatever its size and whichever way it is turned, so these pages show each solid big and small, standing up and lying down.
How can I help my child tell a cube from a sphere or a cylinder?
⌄
Hand your child a block, a ball and a can. A cube has flat square faces and stacks, a sphere is round all over and rolls every way, and a cylinder has 2 flat circles and rolls on its side. Then do the find and color pages, naming each solid out loud.
Does my child need to read or write words?
⌄
No. Children answer with colors, circles, lines and numerals, so an adult only needs to read the Instructions aloud. Solids on the real objects pages are labeled with their names.
Is there an answer key?
⌄
Yes. Each of the 11 sheets has an answer key that shows every colored or circled solid and each count.
