Create Fractions with Apples

This game is an introduction in the fractions. The game starts and the funny figure (game assistant) appears and welcomes the student. The game assistant asks the student to give a number as a denominator of the fraction of apples in a concrete range and after the game, with random choice, will choose a number as the numerator of the fraction of green apples. In continue the student need to create the fraction with making click in a number of red apples such as the given numerator of the fraction. After the game assistant asks the student to write the numerator of the fraction of red apples as is this now after the creation of fraction of green apples. In continue the game restarts and the actions is repeated for two times. So, in total, the student answers 6 questions and creates 3 fractions of green apples in total with making click in proper number of apples. Every right answer takes 1 grade and every wrong answer takes 0 grades. Finally the game assistant announces the total grade of the student. This is a analytical abstract for this game.

As many teachers and parents know, learning the concept of fraction can be difficult for many children. Instead of merely presenting a rule, a better way is to use visual models or manipulatives during the study of fraction arithmetic.That way fractions become something concrete to the student, and not just a number on top of another without a meaning.The student will be able to estimate the answer before calculating and evaluate the reasonableness of the final answer. In this game we try to help the students to understand the basic rule: fractions are formed when we have a whole that is divided into so many equal parts with a funny and interactive way. So we believe this is a good teaching resource for teachers in daily work in class, a useful activity for kids to help them in everyday homework and a helping educational tool for parents to help their kids in understanding the fractions.
