My plan for Dr Mike’s Math Games for Kids over the next couple of months is to build a big section all about fractions. The reasons for this are simple enough… First of all, the sections on times tables and magic squares look a bit lonely all by themselves in the menu… 🙂 More importantly, I know a lot of parents and teachers are looking for fractions information online, and this topic is under-represented on my site.
I’m starting with a new Fraction Simplifying Puzzle. I got the idea for this puzzle from a bulletin board, and made up a few variants so that it will be useful for more different levels of student. This is about the third fractions game on the site.
I hope you find it useful!
