I am totally addicted to this game right now thanks to Dan Meyer. Who cares that it’s probably designed for 4th graders! I like how the creators of the game explicitly state that the game is not a lesson in fractions, but rather requires knowledge of fractions. I think this game would make a great starting inquiry into fraction concepts. Students can play the game and later reflect and induce some fraction rules. That and it’s just fun!
Or, just PLAY THE GAME!
