Game: SOW GROW
Aim: To grow and gather sunflowers
Method:
Look at and listen to each math question. Click/tap on the pot that has the right answer. Expand answers if necessary using the magnifying glass buttons.
Correct answers water the seedling which grows, blooms and the flower is cut for the vase. Continue until you have collected the given number of flowers.
3rd grade / Shapes / Properties of 2-D shapes / How many vertices and sides
Regular named 2D shapes have a set number of sides which is part of their definition. They also have a set number of vertices (corners). In this topic you are asked to identify how many sides and vertices each named shape has (circles and ovals are not thought of as having sides and certainly do not have vertices).
Quadrilaterals: All quadrilaterals have 4 sides - that is how a quadrilateral is defined. The quadrilaterals include the square, rectangle, kite, rhombus and trapezoid. By definition, all quadrilaterals also have 4 vertices.
Triangles: All triangles have 3 sides and 3 vertices.
More than 4 sides: pentagon, hexagon, etc. A pentagon has 5 sides and 5 vertices, a hexagon has 6 and 6, a septagon has 7 and 7 and an octagon has 8 sides and 8 vertices.
So the general rule is that a regular 2-dimensional shape has the same number of vertices as it has sides.
In this topic you are shown a series of diagrams of regular 2D shapes. You must give the number of sides and vertices for each shape.
With our Sow grow math game you will be practicing the topic "How many vertices and sides" from 3rd grade / Shapes / Properties of 2-D shapes. The math in this game consists of 24 questions that ask you to count the number of vertices (corners) and sides on the given 2-D shapes.
Sow grow is a gentle game that concentrates on your ability to answer math questions. The game itself is very simple to play and does not require manual dexterity or fast reaction times. You are growing sunflowers in pots on a window sill. When you answer questions correctly you get to pick a sunflower to put in the vase. When the vase is full, you have completed the game.
