My son who is 7 fetched his homework home and he had to give 10 examples of a prism and 10 examples of prism. The teacher gave him 2 examples of each with the 2 for a cylinder being a bin and a tin of beans, and the two examples for a prism being a tomblerone and a cucumber? I have looked on the internet and everything says a prism should have 3 sides, eg a tomblerone. So how come a cucumber is a prism? i have phoned other parents who have kids in the same class and they have all being given the same. CONFUSED???!!!!
