Polygon Concentration Game - This will not be the most challenging game you have ever played, but it will check to see if you know the names of polygons and can remember where you saw them.
POLYGONS - You will learn the names of different flat shapes, called polygons. They give a VERY clear way of thinking of what a polygon is! You will also learn how to categorize them and identify them.

QUADRILATERALS - Become an expert on quadrilaterals, polygons that have four sides. https://www.mathsisfun.com/quadrilaterals.html
Adobe Flash Player is needed for many (but not all) of these links.
Regular or Irregular? Look at the polygons and decide if it is regular or irregular.

Symmetry Artist - Free explore with shapes, lines, and color while this automatically reflects it using a line of symmetry.
MEASURING ANGLES - Is using a protractor still a little tricky? This protractor spins around the vetex, so you know it's always in the corner perfectly. Make sure you line it up by clicking on the rotate button. Then read the protractor and type in your answer.
EZ SCHOOL ANGLES - Drag the protractor onto the angle as you line up the center spot yourself. Choose which of the three given answers is right.

ROCKET ANGLES - This one is a bit trickier. Can you determine the size of the angle from the rocket to the alien? There is a protractor and a calculator for you to use to help you.
FREE TRAINING - There are several games where you need to see how well you do with angles!
JEOPARDY ANGLES - Once you have learned about angles, challange some friends to a game of Jeopardy. Your answer doesn't need to be in the form of a question! Click on the correct answer when given a choice of four
PERIMETER AND AREA SPY GUYS - Here's a way to learn about perimeter and area and how it applies to our real lives.
SIMILAR AND CONGRUENT - At this site, you will read to learn the different between similar shapes (same angles, but different sized sides) and congruent shapes (exactly the same size and shape). Then, see how well you have learned the information by answering questions to check yourself. https://www.absorblearning.com/mathematics/demo/units/KCA035.html
SIMILAR POLYGONS - Be your own photocopier that can enlarge and shrink the size of things. The angles are the same from one polygon to the next, but the lengths of the sides change. You are given a clue to help you figure out the mystery length. Start with level three!
SIMILAR TRIANGLES - This is a cool way of understanding similar triangles. You can change one triangle and it automatically changes the other triangle so it makes it similar. Remember that similar shapes have the same degrees in each corresponding angle.
