Game: ROCK FALL
Aim: Smash all the falling rocks
Method:
Click / tap on each falling rock. Answer the question in the box as quickly as you can.
There are only 4 questions in this game so it is quite short... if you can get those rocks!
Your final score is based on number of questions answered right / wrong, and the time taken.
This topic focuses on a number pattern where the next number is worked out by doubling the current one (multiply it by 2). This doubling pattern is easiest to understand by looking at examples. Let's start by looking at the simplest example:
1 , 2 , 4 , 8 , _ , _ ...
What comes next? To find out, let's first make sure this pattern is a doubling pattern by looking at the differences between each pair of numbers. You may notice that we are using multiply and divide because this pattern is a geometric sequence, not an arithmetic sequence.
You can see that in each step, we multiply the previous number by 2 to get the next number in the sequence. That is because doubling a number is the same as multiplying it by 2. Now, let's use this rule to find the next number:
8 x 2 = 16
The next number in the pattern is 16. The sequence now looks like this:
1 , 2 , 4 , 8 , 16 , _ ...
If we do the next number in the sequence, it will be 16 x 2 which is 32,
1 , 2 , 4 , 8 , 16 , 32 ...
To recap, always remember the following steps when identifying the next number in a pattern that doubles the size of the number each time:
This topic asks you to work out the missing number in the pattern of numbers created by doubling the current number each time.
With our Rock fall math game you will be practicing the topic "Doubling each time" from 3rd grade / Pattern / Number patterns. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to pick the next number in these number doubling patterns.
ROCK FALL is based on the road traffic warning sign for falling rocks - a sign that seems a bit less useful than somebody getting up there on that cliff and actually doing something about it... Anyway, the rocks are falling and it is your job to stop them hitting the road below, or at least stopping them hitting the road below too many times and breaking it. Smash the rocks by clicking or tapping on them (not so easy in real life of course) - they will turn into snowflakes and float gently down into nothing.
There are 4 rocks to stop and not much time to do it (if you want to get a good score and get on the leaderboard). This game is fun and fast and requires good reflexes and a good strategy. Plan to break the smaller rocks first if you want a good score because the rocks fall faster as the game progresses. It also helps to decide where on their path you plan to click / tap the rocks.
