4 IN A ROW game to practice
'Square numbers' for 5th grade

Square numbers

In this topic you are asked to look at a series of numbers from the Square numbers series and fill in the missing number.

Square numbers are a sequence of numbers that are the result of multiplying a number by itself. For example, 3 squared is written as 3² and is equal to 3 x 3 = 9. The first few square numbers are 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, and so on.

To understand how these numbers work, imagine a square with sides of length 1. This square would have an area of 1 square unit. If you increase the side length to 2, the square would have an area of 2² or 4 square units. If you increase the side length to 3, the square would have an area of 3² or 9 square units.

In general, the nth square number is found by raising n to the second power. So the formula for the nth square number is: Sn = n².

Square numbers show up in many places in math and science, from calculating the area of a square to understanding the properties of certain types of shapes and patterns.

With our Four in a row math game you will be practicing the topic "Square numbers" from 5th grade / Pattern / Missing term. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to identify the missing number in these square number patterns.

Four in a row is similar to the paper game "Noughts and crosses" but we have changed it into a one-person math learning / revision game. The aim of the game is to win 4 cells in a row from a grid of 16 cells.
