Mathcar racing is a game that not only provides practice for arithmetic skills
but also challenges students' logic and reasoning abilities. The student
selects a problem from the matrix and is awarded the sum of the
expression. If at the end of the game the student has the largest score, or
has completed the most laps on the racetrack, he or she wins.
Spacey Math
A drill game where students are given a set of math facts to answer (can
select addition, subtraction, multiplication, division).

Distance, Speed and Time Relationships #1
Students will examine and compare time versus distance relationships, and
represent change over time as seen using a single runner along a line and
review results plotted along a graph. This activity helps students identify,
describe and compare situations with constant or varying rates of change.
Interactive Pan Balance
Students can use this interactive pan balance to help understand that
equality is a relationship, not an operation.
Late Delivery
Help Postmaster Phil by finding the value of the expression written on each
door using algebra.
Number Cracker
Help Mr. Cracker obtain the secret code before the insidious Prof. Soup
catches him by guessing what number comes next in a series of numbers.
PBS Kids - Crack Hacker's Safe
Find the right pattern to crack Hacker's safe by looking at growing and
shrinking patterns.
Pattern Quest
The computer picks a secret pattern using 4 of 6 shapes. You make a guess
and the computer then tells you how correct your guesses were.
Poddle Weigh-In
The Poddles have lost their numbers. Use a balance scale to help them
figure out what they are equal to.
Stop That Creature
Using patterns you can stop the creatures who are about to destroy the
Poodleville power station. To stop the creatures you must figure out the rule
(example: +1) that changes the numbers as they go through the machine.

Standard 3
Students will understand attributes and properties of plane geometric objects
and spatial relationships.
 Bathroom Tiles
While Pythagoras has a bath, work out how to rotate, reflect, and translate
the patterns on the bathroom tiles.
 Figures and Polygons
This website offers picture examples and written definitions of different
polygons and terms.
 Jigsaw Puzzle
So you think you're good at jigsaw puzzles? Use fractions and scale to place
the puzzle pieces.
 Math Cats Tessellation Town
Students manipulate interactive shapes to help learn about and develop
tessallations.
 National Library of Virtual Manipulatives:Geometry
Virtual manipulatives related to the NCTM Geometry standard for grades 3 5.
 Native American Geometry
This site is worth a look to add depth and relevance to your geometry
curriculum. There is much discussion about how geometry has been
discovered and used in all cultures of the world for practical uses as well as
decorations. You will find activities on this page, including one for use with a
compass.
 PBS Kids = Stargazing
Type in the correct angle for the telescope to find a planet!
 PBS Kids Symmetrizer
Explore symmetry with an cool, online Kaleidoscope.
 Point Out the View
Things always look different depending on your point of view. In this game,
each member of the Cybersquad is looking at a bunch of 3-D blocks from a
different place. Your challenge is to show what each person sees from their
point of view.
 Puzzle Parlor
Twelve interactive online games from the puzzle makers at Kadon
Enterprises, Inc. designed to give students practice with problem solving
skills using mathematical and spatial sense intelligence.

knowledge.
Tangram Game
Tangram is an ancient game that originated in China. Try to create the
shape shown using all 7 pieces provided.
Tangram Puzzles
This two-part tangram example demonstrates the potential for high-quality
experiences provided by computer 'shape' environments for students as
they learn concepts described in the Geometry Standard. Describing
figures and visualizing what they look like when they are transformed are
important aspects of geometry in the lower grades.
What's In a Shape?
The purpose of this lesson is to explore characteristics of shapes by making
and using tangram sets; to discover how the tangram pieces are related to
one another; and to determine how many different combinations of the
triangles, squares, and parallelograms in tangram sets can make a given
shape.
