Antipyretics for children are prescribed by a pediatrician. But there are emergency situations for fever when the child needs to be given medicine immediately. Then the parents take responsibility and use antipyretic drugs. What is allowed to give to infants? How can you bring down the temperature in older children? What medicines are the safest?

Math games and puzzles are very popular, as are all games. And not always a more difficult game is more interesting. Often, millions of people play the simplest games with unquenchable interest; it is they who enter the history of mathematics and glorify their creators.

Puzzles are the closest to mathematics, but many puzzles have been formed from games that once existed. Most of these foundational games were invented by ancient Greek mathematicians.

GAMES The simplest mathematical games are often used as problems in which you need to find a winning strategy. Sometimes problems are quite simple when they are solved by known methods.

Tic-tac-toe Tic-tac-toe is a logic game between two opponents on a square field of 3 by 3 cells or larger (up to an "infinite field"). One of the players plays with "crosses", the second with "noes".

Currently, many algorithms for this game have been invented, based primarily on enumeration of various options. There are simple tricks of this game that players use, but attentiveness is most often decisive.

The NIM game and other games There are several games in which two players, guided by certain rules, take turns taking out one or another number of chips from one or more piles - the one who takes the last chip wins.

Nim belongs to such games. There is an arbitrary number of piles of chips, and the players take turns choosing one pile and taking out any number of chips from it (but at least one is required).

Basche is a math game in which two players take turns picking a limited number of items from a pile of N items. The loser is the one who has nothing to take. Basche is a math game in which two players take turns picking a limited number of items from a pile of N items. The loser is the one who has nothing to take. The player's math game The player's math game The classic game involves N=15 and taking at least 1 and at most 3 items at a time. The strategy in this case is to complement the opponent's moves up to 4. Also, a generalized game in which you can take from 1 to M items can be called Basche's game.

Starry him. It is quite simple, but the strategy in it is not immediately visible. This game is played on a star-shaped figure. Place one chip on each of the nine points of the star. Players A and B take turns moving, each time removing either one or two pieces connected by a straight line. The one who removes the last chip is the one who wins.

PUZZLE Math puzzles there are a variety of: rotational (Rubik's cube), Magic rings, Games with a hole (tags), lattice and many others. Mathematical puzzles are very different: rotational (Rubik's cube), Magic rings, Games with a hole (15), lattice and many others.


"Rubik's Cube" The most famous puzzle of our time - the Rubik's Cube - began its victorious march around the world since 1978, when mathematicians first got acquainted with it at the International Mathematical Congress in Helsinki.

Games with a hole Before the invention of the Rubik's Cube, for many people, acquaintance with puzzles began with tags - this is how the famous game 15 is often called.

Fifteen Fifteen is the beginning of the history of games with a hole - puzzles in which chips move around the playing field due to the fact that one of the places on the field is free. Fifteen have many relatives, which just form a whole section of these puzzles.

From 1891 until his death, Samuel Loyd believed that he had invented the puzzle. However, there is evidence that he was not involved in the creation of "tag".

The game "Shifting cards" At the moment after the cards were laid out in two piles for the first time, then again folded into one pile, as indicated in the condition of the problem, the card with the intended number is among the eight bottom ones. These 8 cards will be distributed evenly between the two piles the next time they are laid out. This means that after the cards are collected in one pile for the second time, the card with the intended number will be among the four bottom ones. The third time it will be among the two bottom cards, and finally, after the fourth unfolding, the card will be the bottom one in one of the piles.

Geometric puzzle "Pass a coin" The diameter of a 5-ti-penny coin is 19 mm, a 5-ruble coin is 25 mm. I bend the paper so that the round hole extends into a narrow slot. The length of the slot will be approximately equal to half the circumference of a 5 kopeck coin: (19*3.14)/2=29.83 mm. It's over 25mm. A 5-ruble coin passes through it. The diameter of a 5-kopeck coin is 19 mm, a 5-ruble coin is 25 mm. I bend the paper so that the round hole extends into a narrow slot.

Conclusion Conclusion Calculating a variant is a fascinating and useful activity. The great mathematician Leibniz was right: “Most of all, people show ingenuity in games, which means that mathematical games deserve attention not only in themselves, but also because they develop resourcefulness.” Calculating a variant is a fascinating and useful activity.

Completed by: Vahonina Valeria, Serin Lana, 5B class. MBOU secondary school with .Toora-Khem Head: Korobeynikova Tatyana Yurievna. Project on mathematics on the topic: Mathematical puzzles and games.

Goals and objectives: Find out what math games and puzzles are. Independently explore different types of math games and puzzles. Find out what math games are for, are they useful?

1) Puzzles. 2) Puzzles. 3) Games. 4) Tangram. 5) Conclusion. 6) Literature used. 7) Epilogue. Table of contents.

How to solve puzzles

Try to solve it yourself: rebus 1.

Try to solve it yourself: rebus 2.

Try to solve it yourself: rebus 3.

1) Remove 5 sticks so that after that 3 of the same squares remain. puzzles

2) Remove 2 sticks so that 4 of the same squares remain. puzzles

3) Remove 4 sticks to make 5 squares. The squares may not be the same. puzzles

Rules of the game: The teacher writes several examples on the board in a column. Three guys stand with their backs to the board. The teacher points to one of the examples. The whole class silently solves it. Who decides, raises his hand. One of the deciders is invited to say the answer out loud. Those standing at the blackboard turn to face her and try to find an example with the named answer as quickly as possible. The one who does it first gets one point. the game

Let's play! Calculate: 45 + 35 180 - 80 32: 2 18 + 31 150: 3

T angram. Tangram - an old oriental puzzle of figures obtained by cutting a square into 7 parts in a special way: 2 large triangles, one medium, 2 small triangles, a square and a parallelogram.

As a result of folding these parts with each other, flat figures are obtained, the contours of which resemble all kinds of objects, ranging from humans, animals and ending with tools and household items. It is necessary to use all the details of the tangram and they should not overlap each other. You are given a drawing and you must determine where which figure is. It is difficult, it takes time to find a solution. T angram.

Solve your own tangrams

Conclusion. We have studied: the mathematical game Tangram, games with matches, rebuses, a game with numbers. We concluded that mathematical games develop logic and attention. Tangram is a puzzle, a constructor, a simulator for the brain. He teaches to think logically. Any puzzle will help to calm down, remove negative emotions. After such a game, the child will be much calmer and more balanced.

We hope everyone enjoyed it very much and you fell in love with mathematics even more. In mathematics, there are many more fun and interesting games on the ground. This is where our project is finished for now, but in the future we will continue it and find many more interesting games. Epilogue.

Thank you for your attention! Goodbye!
