Cool maths games
Gingerbread Man Counting Game
This is a simple counting game from WMNET
which covers numbers up to five. All you have
to do is count the number of cherries on the
gingerbread man, then click the correct number.
Click the check button and you'll get a cheer
and a happy gingerbread and if you're right. If
not, don't worry, just have another go.
One of our favourite games from ICT Games.
Click Next and an addition question will appear
at the top of the screen. Click on the right
answer and a mummy will pop out and do a funky
dance for you.
In this CBeebies game you can choose to
match easy or hard pictures, or create your own
on a blank screen. The aim is to choose shapes
and colours which match the guide picture. In
the harder levels, you also have to rotate and
resize the shape. When you've finished, you can
animate your picture and print it
out.
Clockwise Time Game
In this BBC
Education game you can choose three
levels. Level 1 is for o'clock times only,
level 2 uses 15 minute intervals and level
3 five minute intervals. A time is
displayed at the top and you have to move
the hands by clicking on the clock face.
As the clock face changes, the digital
clock shows the matching time. Nice sound
effects!
Before starting this game from Oswego you
can choose whether to make your flag with
halves, quarters or a mixture of fractions.
Then you can design your own flag by painting
it in the chosen colours, making sure you
colour the correct number of squares to match
the fraction.
To make progress in maths, it's important to master the
basics. There's no point trying to learn to add when you
haven't yet learnt how to count, and it's very hard to
understand times tables when you can't yet add.
The trouble is, maths skills need quite a lot of practice
before they become automatic. Practising maths skills over and
over again can be rather boring. That's where playing maths
games can help. There are so many different games to help
you master all the different maths skills that learning
maths becomes fun!
