4 IN A ROW game to practice
'Most sides' for 5th grade

Which shape has more sides?

Regular 2D geometric shapes apart from the ovals have a certain number of sides that are part of their definitions. You can easily count the number of sides a certain shape has. Remember that all quadrilaterals have 4 sides.

Square: A square has four sides of equal length.

Rectangle: A rectangle has two pairs of opposite sides of equal length.

Triangle: All triangles have 3 sides.

Kite: A kite is a quadrilateral with two pairs of adjacent sides of equal length.

Rhombus: A rhombus is a quadrilateral with 4 sides of equal length.

Trapezoid: a quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides.

Pentagon, etc: A pentagon has 5 sides, a hexagon has 6, a septagon has 7, an octagon has 8 sides and a nonagon has 9 sides.

In this topic you are given diagrams of pairs of shapes and must decide which of the shapes has more sides. The shapes include square, rectangle, other quadrialaterals (kite, rhombus, trapezoid, etc.), various types of triangle, pentagon, heptagon, etc.

With our Four in a row math game you will be practicing the topic "Most sides" 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 sides.

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.
