Maybe show them how you can project a line segment perpendicular to its direction to make a rectangle, then show how you can project a square into a rectangular prism. A visual could help.

Can you use the Microsoft Office graph function? I think they can show bar graphs as a 3D cylinder/rectangular prism.

Why not use a 3d model viewer or something like tinkercad

I thought that would be ideal, but teachers are busy and I don't know if op has the time to learn it.
