(b)

A tower

Answer

Stack all 6 dice vertically, one on top of another, to create a tall tower.

(c)

Any other shape of your choice

Answer

Creative shapes can include: L-shape (4 in a row with 2 stacked at one end), T-shape, stairs pattern (1, 2, 3 dice in steps), or other arrangements using all 6 dice.

Explanation

(a) A cuboid can be formed by arranging cubes in a rectangular pattern. Six dice can form a 2×32 \times 3 or 1×61 \times 6 cuboid. (b) A tower is created by vertical stacking. All 6 dice are placed one on top of another in a single column. (c) Children use creativity to arrange 6 dice in different configurations. This encourages exploration and spatial creativity.
