Activity 1: Question Game. Estimated duration: 15 min

Newton Pool

The game consists of hand-crafted levels where the player controls a white ball. The goal of each level is to get the white ball to the end of the level in as few moves as possible, while racking up points by bumping golden balls into obstacles on the way! The game does not have any instructional math content, it simply has math review questions spread throughout.

Activity 2: Instructional Game. Estimated duration: 17 min

Light Shot - Transmission and Refraction of Light

Light usually travels in straight lines but did you know that you can bend it using different materials? In this game, you will use a light ray to shoot and refract light. Your player will be transported to wherever her ray goes. As you play, you'll learn about how different materials bend light in different ways. Are you bright enough for this puzzle?
