Game: CAT AND MOUSE
Aim: Catch the white mice
Method:
Move the cat with the arrow keys or by tapping in the game area to catch the white mouse. Avoid the red balloons but hit the blue balloons.
Your final score is based on all of that plus number of questions answered right, and the time taken.
5th grade / Shapes / Properties of 2-D shapes / Most vertices
Regular 2D geometric shapes apart from the ovals have a certain number of vertices that are part of their definitions. The vertices of a shape are the points where two or more line segments meet or intersect. In other words, a vertex is a corner or point where the edges of a shape come together. You can easily count the number of vertices a certain shape has.
All quadrilaterals (shapes with 4 sides) have 4 vertices. So squares, rectangles, kites, rhombuses, parallelograms, trapezoids all have 4 vertices.
Triangle: All triangles have 3 vertices.
Pentagon: A pentagon has five vertices (each corner is a vertex). Additional sides mean additional vertices, so hexagons have 6 vertices, heptagons have 7 and so on.
In this topic you are given diagrams of pairs of shapes and must decide which of the shapes has more vertices. The shapes include square, rectangle, other quadrialaterals (kite, rhombus, trapezoid, etc.), various types of triangle, pentagon, hexagon, heptagon, etc.
With our Cat and mouse math game you will be practicing the topic "Most vertices" from 5th grade / Shapes / Properties of 2-D shapes. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to for each pair of shapes, identify which one has the greater number of vertices.
Cat versus mouse game with added balloons for math and fun. You are the ginger cat, and your life is being made a misery by some white mice which have come into the house and are proving hard to catch. Not to mention there is a mouse house party going on and lots of balloons getting in the way of your hunting.
So you have to catch the white mice, forget about the gray mice, hit the blue balloons but avoid the red balloons, and answer math questions (you are a CLEVER cat...). If it sounds complicated and a bit frantic, that's because it is. Do your best but don't worry if you can't catch all the mice - neither can we. It's a cat's life...
