Want to make a math game but you’re not a script writer? Looking for a game narrative to set your story? You’ve come to the right place. We’ve got a New York Times best-selling author partnered with math teachers who have written the scripts for you.
A note on standards – we have used Common Core Math Standards for examples, but whatever your state or district standards, we’re sure those included multiplication and division of integers, division of a fraction by an integer, etc.
Multiplication and Division of Fractions Scripts
- Multiplication – Cooking for Huge Celebrity Party – Chef Jean Pierre has a mega-famous client holding a huge party, so he needs to multiply the fractions for cups of salt, butter and vegetable oil to serve a crowd. The script options call for multiplying by 9, but can be changed to multiply by any number.
- Division – Cooking for Celebrity Client – Chef Jean Pierre has a mega-famous client holding a very exclusive party, so he needs to divide the fractions for cups of salt, butter and vegetable oil to serve a smaller group. The script options call for dividing by 2, but can be changed to divide by any number.
