Geometric Shapes 2 FREE

An introduction to geometric shapes, suitable for Mathematics students from grade 4 onwards. This educational game uses 40 colourful images and spoken facts to teach students the most common two and three dimensional geometric shapes that we encounter in our daily lives.


Students hear the name of a geometric shape or fact spoken and choose the matching photo. They then hear more information which they will need to answer subsequent questions. After six right in a row, Race Mode starts automatically. It asks questions at speed to test the students' memory and comprehension of the shapes and facts just covered, before continuing with new shapes and facts. At the end of the race, students can see how well they have done relative to their other races. The game gradually focuses on any shapes and facts that the students have difficulty recognizing, and speeds up as competence is gained.


By contrast to Race Mode, Story Mode slowly introduces new geometric shapes by saying them as the photos are shown, allowing students to quietly look, listen and learn.


The game is controlled by on-screen gestures which are simple to demonstrate and easy to use, and the game can be played without voice prompts.
