Game: CAT AND MOUSE
Aim: Catch the white mice

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.
Kindergarten / Subtraction / Subtracting numbers / Subtraction: bridge through 10
In this topic we are going to look at taking away (subtracting) a single digit number like 4 or 7 from a double digit number like 12 or 15 (this is sometimes called 'bridge through 10' because you are counting down from double digits to single digits through the number 10). This is a little bit harder than subtracting single digit numbers but not much harder. So, how can we work out the answer to the following sum :
12 - 7
We know we can subtract numbers by counting down from the first (bigger) number by the same number of steps as the second (smaller) number. So to subtact 6 - 3, we start with 6 and count down three places to 5 then 4 then 3, and 3 is the answer.
When we are subtracting from a double digit number, we do the same thing. So, for 12 - 7, we are going to start with 12 and count down seven places - so, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5. So we can say :
12 - 7 = 5
If you find counting down hard, a different way to work out the sum is to start with the smaller number and count up to the bigger number, and the number of steps you take will be the answer. So if we have the sum 9 - 5, we can count up from 5: to 6, then 7, then 8, then 9. So that was 4 steps and the answer is 4. For 12 - 7, we would start at 7 then :
The number of steps from 7 up to 12, which is the answer, is 5
Another question from the topic is :
17 - 8
So let's use our counting up method. We start at 8, plus 1 to 9, plus 1 to 10, plus 1 to 11, plus 1 to 12, plus 1 to 13, plus 1 to 14, plus 1 to 15, plus 1 to 16, plus 1 to 17. How many steps was that? It was 9 steps so we can say :
17 - 8 = 9
With our Cat and mouse math game you will be practicing the topic "Subtraction: bridge through 10" from Kindergarten / Subtraction / Subtracting numbers. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to subtract a single-digit number from a double-digit number by counting down through 10.
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...
