Sixth Graders in Mrs Riordans math classes learned that fractions can be alot of fun. The
students used fraction manipulatives to create Math Monsters which they labled, colored and displayed. Students
also played fraction addition games in which they had to identify classmates monsters according to the sum total of parts
used.
What a neat way to learn about and use fractions!!
This award winning adventure game allows students to put their PEMDAS skills to the test as they compete
in a wild west stagecoach race against the computer or their classmates. Published by Sunburst Technology the exciting, interactive software is being put to great educational use in the seventh grade math program.
Students are learning the intricacies of the game and its clever use of mathematical order of operations. They will
soon be putting their honed skills to the test in a round robin tournament to find the seventh grade champion of PEMDAS!
Check back soon for more exciting updates....
