Game: THE BEETLE AND THE BEE
Aim: Collect the strawberries, avoid the bees
Method:
Move the beetle with the arrow keys or by tapping the screen. When the beetle catches the strawberry, you must answer the question. If you get it right you keep the strawberry and earn points.
Your final score is based on the time taken minus health lost divided by 10.
2nd grade / Fractions / Fractions and decimals / Order fractions from smallest to largest
Knowing which fraction is biggest or smallest is not always obvious. If we compare fractions that have the same number on the bottom (the denominator) like ⅖, ⅗ and ⅘, then the bigger the number on the top (the numerator) the bigger the fraction is.
If we compare ⅘, ⅗ and ⅖, we can see that all those fractions have the same denominator of 5. The numerators are 4, 3 and 2. So we can say that to arrange those fractions in order from smallest to biggest will be :
⅖ ⅗ ⅘
There is another type of fraction that we need to talk about, unit fractions.
A unit fraction is the name for a fraction where the number on the top is a 1.
So ½ is a unit fraction and so are ⅐ and ⅛ but ⅖ is not because it's numerator is not 1, it is 2.
Arranging unit fractions from smallest to biggest is not as easy as our first example. If we think about the two most common unit fractions, ¼ and ½, we will see why. Which is bigger, ¼ of a cake or ½ a cake? The answer is that ½ a cake is bigger than ¼ of a cake even though the denominator of ½, which is 2, is smaller than the denominator of ¼, which is 4.
So, when we are asked to arrange fractions which are unit fractions, we have to remember that we need to compare the denominators, but that the fractions with the biggest denominators are the smallest fractions. If we are asked to arrange ⅕ ⅙ ⅐ in order from smallest to largest, we compare the denominators and order the fractions with the bigger denominators first and those fractions with the smaller denominators last. Arranging ⅕ ⅙ ⅐ in order from smallest to largest gives :
⅐ ⅙ ⅕
With our The beetle and the bee math game you will be practicing the topic "Order fractions from smallest to largest" from 2nd grade / Fractions / Fractions and decimals. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to re-arrange each set of fractions so that they are listed from smallest to largest.
Fast moving interactive game to learn math where you control the beetle and the bee moves randomly about the screen. The bee should be avoided and the strawberries collected by answering math questions from the topic you have selected - this is learning math for fun!
