Game: MIX AND MATCH
Aim: Drag question blocks to answer boxes
Method:
Drag the question block over the right answer box to tidy up the play room. Points are added and taken away automatically.
Click the answer boxes to hear the answer for each box. You must answer 5 questions correctly to complete the game
5th grade / Shapes / Properties of 2-D shapes / Parts of a circle
As you know, a circle is a shape that is round and has no corners. There are different parts of a circle that you need to be able to identify. These parts include it's radius, diameter and cicumference. You should also know what a chord, a tangent, a sector, a segment and an arc are.
Radius: The radius of a circle is a straight line from the center of the circle to any point on the circle's edge.
Diameter: The diameter of a circle is the distance across the circle, passing through it's center. It's a measure of a straight line that starts at one point on the edge of a circle, goes through the center, and ends at another point on the edge of the circle.
Circumference: The circumference of a circle is the distance around the edge of the circle. It's like the perimeter of a circle.
Chord: A chord is a line segment that connects two points on the edge of a circle. It's a line that starts at one point on the edge of the circle and ends at another point on the edge of the circle that doesn't pass through the center.
Tangent: A tangent is a line that touches the edge of a circle at exactly one point without entering the circle.
Arc: An arc is a certain length along the edge of a circle.
Sector: A sector is a section of the circle that's bounded by two radii and an arc. It's like a slice of pizza that's been cut out of the circle..
Segment: A segment is a slice out of the side of a circle that's bounded by a chord and an arc. It is what you would get if you took a knife and sliced off a part of a circle with a single straight cut.
In this topic you are given diagrams of parts of a circle and have to identify what that part is called.
With our Mix and match math game you will be practicing the topic "Parts of a circle" from 5th grade / Shapes / Properties of 2-D shapes. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to identify parts of a circle including radius, diameter, circumference, chord, tangent etc..
In this game we are in a room with lots of toys - and the room needs clearing up - you need to put the play blocks back in the right boxes to tidy the room and win the game...but which is the right box for each block? Well, you can work that out by comparing the question on the block with the math answer on each of the boxes - you should drag the question block into the box whose math answer matches the picture question.
You can listen to the spoken math answer by clicking on the individual boxes. There are 5 blocks to clear up - but if you put them in the wrong boxes, there will be more... Anyway, tidy is good and practicing math is better so start now and see how you get on...
This game reinforces the math you learned or revised in the lesson by asking you to match each question to the correct answer. If you are older you may not like the childish reference to toys, but don't worry - there are other games to play, and who knows - you might like a trip down memory lane?

There are 5 blocks that need putting away to tidy the play room. Drag (they are heavy...) the blocks to the correct boxes.
