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).

Cyber Pattern Player
This CyberChase activity can be used to create musical patterns that can
be both seen and heard.
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.
Math Cats Crafts
Students explore the world of geometry by making art crafts based on
geometric principles.
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.

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.
Visualizing Transformations
The interactive figures in this four-part example allow a user to manipulate a
shape and observe its behavior under a particular transformation or
composition of transformations.
