Featured Math Games for the Classroom in March
Read on for an in-depth analysis of each one of these engaging games for the classroom.
Jiro’s Sushi Delivery: Prime, Composite, and Factor Pairs
Jiro’s Sushi Delivery provides comprehensive instructional sequences with explicit modeling and guided practice, introducing number theory concepts through narrative-driven exploration.
The game systematically develops conceptual understanding of factors, multiples, and prime decomposition through visually supported challenges.
Students learn when abstract numerical relationships are transformed into tangible sushi preparation tasks—an exemplar of embodied cognition principles in mathematics education.
Round Decimals To Any Place with Buster
Students are invited to join Buster on his quest to collect tennis balls! With each correct answer, Buster will get closer to his goal.
This fun-filled learning experience will improve rounding skills and make math exciting!
It incorporates a concrete visualization of the rounding process through number-line representations, strategic questioning that promotes awareness of rounding decisions, progressive complexity from tenths to thousandths with appropriate scaffolding, and error analysis opportunities when incorrect rounding occurs, promoting a productive struggle.
Solve Basic Multiplication and Division Equations with Multiblocks!
This engaging math game positions students as “mathematical restoration specialists” within a dynamic transportation system.
By solving equations with missing values (e.g., □ ÷ 6 = 7 or 8 × □ = 56), students develop:
- Understanding of the relationship between multiplication and division as inverse operations
- Fluency with decomposition strategies for unknown value identification
- Pattern recognition across numerical relationships
- Algebraic reasoning foundations essential for later mathematical success
The three-dimensional representation provides multiple entry points for diverse learners, including spatial, logical, and visual processing pathways. The train acceleration mechanism serves as a proportional feedback system—correct answers increase velocity, creating an engaging reinforcement system aligned with optimal challenge theory.
