Shark's Dinner

The Maths version of the classic hangman game.
Guess the letters in the mathematical word or phrase before the shark eats the fish!

Begin

The words are chosen at random from a database of over five hundred mathematical words associated with keystage 3 Mathematics. Click on a letter below the picture to choose it. If it is in the word or phrase, all occurrences of it will appear on the dashed line. If that letter is not in the word or phrase, the shark will get a little closer to it's dinner.

Tip: Press the F11 key to see the game in a full screen.
