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
Kindergarten / Comparing numbers / Biggest smallest 1-20 / Biggest number: 1 to 20
In this topic you are asked to look at a group of four numbers and decide wich number is the biggest. There are four numbers in each group, and the numbers can be as big as 20 or as small as 1. In the first question, you have the group of numbers :
11, 2, 13, 4
Start by looking at the number of digits for each number - two of the numbers have 2 digits wheras the other two only have one. We know that a 2 digit number like 12 is bigger than the biggest one digit number which is 9. So, looking for the biggest number we can ignore the two numbers with only one digit.
Comparing the other two numbers, 11 and 13, we can see that the second digit of 13 which is 3 is bigger than the second digit of 11 which is 1. So the biggest number in the group has to be :
13
In another question from the topic you are asked to find the biggest number from the following group of numbers :
16, 18, 17, 6
So we use the same technique as last time and look at the number of digits for each number in that list. You will see that one of them has only one digit, so that cannot be the biggest number in the group.
There are three numbers in the list that start with a 1, so compare their second digit. They are 6, 8 and 7. We know that 8 is bigger than 6 or 7 so the biggest number in the list has to be :
18
With our Mix and match math game you will be practicing the topic "Biggest number: 1 to 20" from Kindergarten / Comparing numbers / Biggest smallest 1-20. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to choose the biggest number from groups of numbers between 1 and 20.
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?
