Game: PONG
Aim: Break the bricks, score points
Method:
Use your mouse or tap in the white bar to move the paddle horizontally to bounce the ball up the screen. Answer questions when you break the white bricks, score big points with the yellow bricks.
Your final score is based on correct answers, bricks broken and time taken.
5th grade / Algebra / Formulae: perimeter / Perimeter of compound shapes
A compound shape is a shape made up of 2 or more basic shapes that are joined together. You can think of the shape of a capital L as being a compound shape made up of 2 rectangles at right angles to each other. The procedure for calculating the perimeter of a compound shape is as follows:
For example, if a compound shape is made up of a square with sides of length 2 cm and an equilateral triangle with sides of 2 cm, it's perimeter will be:
2 cm x 4 (the square)
plus
2 cm x 3 (the triangle)
minus
2 cm (their shared side)
= 12 cm
This topic asks you calculate perimeters in terms of x where x represents some length with a given unit.
Use a slow game like 4 in a row to practice this topic first, then when you get into a timed game like Pong, you will have had enough practice to be able to work out the questions really fast!
With our Pong math game you will be practicing the topic "Perimeter of compound shapes" from 5th grade / Algebra / Formulae: perimeter. The math in this game consists of 12 questions that ask you to use algebra to express the total perimeter of compound shapes in terms of x.
In our version of Pong/Breakout, there are 3 types of bricks for you to break: green bricks are worth just 2 points; yellow bricks are worth a whopping 50 points; breaking white bricks, which are worth 10 points, wins you a math question from the topic you have chosen.
You start with 5 lives. If the ball goes below the paddle, you lose a life and 200 points. The game ends when you answer all 10 questions or lose all your lives.
