Step onto the quiz show stage in this high-energy digital game all about perimeter! Students will answer a series of multiple-choice questions designed to challenge their understanding of measurement in real-world contexts. With one, two, and three-point rounds, the stakes increase as students apply their knowledge of metric units to solve practical problems.

Throughout the game, students will solve perimeter problems involving the lengths of simple and compound shapes. Each question presents a short scenario or measurement prompt with four possible answers. Students must calculate the perimeter using the appropriate strategy and metric unit—building fluency with addition and spatial reasoning in the process.

Who will earn the most points and take home the quiz show prize?

Key Learning Outcomes:

• ✅ Calculate the perimeter of shapes using metric units
• ✅ Apply knowledge of length and measurement to solve practical problems
• ✅ Interpret word problems with real-world context
• ✅ Develop fluency with addition and efficient strategies
• ✅ Engage in interactive measurement practise through game-based learning

How to Play:

1. Students are presented with a perimeter question and four multiple-choice answers.
2. Rounds include one-point, two-point, and three-point questions to increase challenge and excitement.
3. Correct answers earn points and move the player up the leaderboard.
4. At the end, the student with the most points wins—and receives a digital prize reveal!

Ideas for Classroom Use:
