Game: CHOOSE OR LOSE
Aim: Choose the right answer; beat the clock
Method:
You start the game with 50 points. Each question has 2 to 4 answers. Select the correct answer before your time runs out to score points. Right answers are +10, wrong answers are -2, out of time is -5.
This is a timed game. Your final score is equal to the total score minus 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 Choose or lose 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.
Our CHOOSE OR LOSE game is a simple activity to help elementary math learners and will improve the speed at which you can solve problems in the given topic. It does not rely on the learner typing in the answer. Rather, the learner must choose the correct answer from a list of 2, 3 or 4 similar answers.
CHOOSE OR LOSE encourages faster problem-solving for common and vital elementary math topics. CHOOSE OR LOSE is a timed game with a leaderboard for each topic at each of the 4 levels on offer. You can play the game with or without audio and robots.
UXO * Duck shoot * The frog flies * Pong * Cat and mouse * The beetle and the bee
Rock fall * Four in a row * Sow grow * Choose or lose * Mix and match
Our CHOOSE OR LOSE game asks the learner to click on the correct answer from a selection of possible answers before the clock runs down.
