Game: UXO
Aim: Knock out the targets, avoid the bombs
Method:
Click or tap and hold to destroy the objects while avoiding the bombs. When you knock out all 10 targets, you must answer the question to continue to the next level. There is a time limit of 30 seconds to get all 10 targets or you lose 50 points.
Scoring is :
Hit target : +10
Hit bomb : -5
Right answer : +50
Wrong answers : -20
2nd grade / Addition / Word problems / Total number of items
With our UXO math game you will be practicing the topic "Total number of items" from 2nd grade / Addition / Word problems. The math in this game consists of 11 questions that ask you to use addition to find out how many items there are in total.
3 topics:
Total number of items
Total cost of 2 items
Total cost of 3 items
Sometimes in math the sums are not given to you as numbers in columns, but as words and sentences. This doesn't mean that the math you have to do is different, but it does mean you have to work out first what the sum you are being asked to do is, and then work on the sum itself. In this set of topics, the questions are to do with adding up either the total number of items or the total cost of a set number of items.
When we want to understand math problems in sentences, we need to read carefully through the sentence and create a sum that takes the number information out of the sentence and puts it in a sum. For instance, in the sentence "Jack has 6 apples and Jill has 12 apples." we can see that the things we are interested in are the apples, and the numbers we need to sum are 6 and 12. So, to get the total number of APPLES, we add up the 6 (that Jack has) and the 12 (the number of apples that Jill has). Written as a sum this will be
6 + 12 = 18
So we can say that the number of apples that Jack and Jill have is 18.
When the sentences we are looking at involve money, we have a similar situation, but our addition sum will involve adding amounts of money rather than numbers of items. Sometimes this is easy. Say we have 2 things that cost 12 cents each. To know the total cost, we simply add the 12 twice to get 24 cents. If the 2 items cost different amounts, we can still add up those 2 amounts to get a total cost. For 3 items, the idea is the same.
UXO is a fun game to learn math where you attempt to knock over all the target objects while avoiding clicking / tapping on the bombs.
After each level, win an additional 50 points by correctly answering a math question from your selected topic. Wrong answers lose you 20 points but you can answer multiple times. Each level lasts 30 seconds: if you haven't cleared all the targets in that time, you lose 50 points. High scores can be added to the UXO leaderboards.
