Brainie

This game is called Brainie.  In this game you have to look t the number on the side and add the numbers to get the number.  For example, if the number on the side is 14, I could go 7 + 7 but I don't have any sevens so I could go 5 + 5 = 10 + 6 - 2 = 14.  If I do that more of the numbers will go away and I will have a higher score.  If you want to play this game, here is the link: http://www.coolmath-games.com/0-brainie/index.html

Rounding and Compensating

This week in maths,we are learning to round and compensate numbers.  Rounding and compensating numbers is hard and easy.  For example, 45 + 28 = ? you have to plus 2 to 28 so you 30 because the nearest number to 28 is 30.  45 +30 = 75.  Then you have to take away 2 from 75 so its 75 - 2 = 73.  I need to learn this because if something like this pops up in college, I can remember what I did in primary school.  This is the worksheet we were learning how to round and compensate numbers:

Egg Fractions

This game is called Egg Fractions.  This game is suitable for 7 - 11 year olds.  In this game you have to look at the drawn fractions and match the drawn fractions to the fraction below.  The answer to 1/4 is the drawn fraction in the middle.  This game was very easy for me because I know my fraction.  There are many stages to choose from but I chose this one.  I would like to play games like this because it helps people learn new things.  If you want to play the game, this is the link:
