Order Rational Numbers Math Games

4 games

In this series of games, your students will learn how to interpret statements of inequality as statements about the relative position of two numbers on a number line diagram. The Order Rational Numbers learning objective — based on CCSS and state standards — delivers improved student engagement and academic performance in your classroom, as demonstrated by research. This learning objective directly references 6.NS.C.7.b as written in the common core national math standards.

Scroll down for a preview of this learning objective’s games and the concepts.

Concepts Covered

Positive numbers can be ordered by magnitude. When ordering negative numbers, numbers closer to 0 are greater in value. The value of numbers increases as they go right on the number line and decreases as they go left. Numbers can be compared for value by their relative position on the number line.

In context create situations where one can compare rational negative numbers.

Molecule Maker Estimated Duration: 25 minutes Play as an alien from a distant universe on a mission to discover the secrets of matter and its building structures on planet Earth. Learn about molecules and compounds, while also being able to relate these to notions in everyday life.

Molecule Shapes - Model Estimated Duration: 10 minutes Explore electron geometry and molecular geometry by building 3D models of molecules. Add lone pairs or single, double, or triple bonded atoms to a central atom, and observe how the shape and bond angles change. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Molecule Shapes - Real Molecules Estimated Duration: 10 minutes Investigate the electron and molecular geometry of real molecules. Compare the shape and bond angles to the values predicted using VSEPR theory. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Molecule Shapes: Basics - Model Estimated Duration: 10 minutes Build 3D models of molecules by adding single, double, or triple bonded atoms to a central atom. See the bond angles, and explore the molecular geometry. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Molecule Shapes: Basics - Real Molecules Estimated Duration: 10 minutes Explore the molecular geometry and bond angles of a selected list of real molecules. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Build a Molecule - Single Estimated Duration: 10 minutes Starting from atoms, see how many molecules you can build. Collect your molecules and view them in 3D!

Build a Molecule - Multiple Estimated Duration: 10 minutes Starting from atoms, see how many molecules you can build. Collect your molecules and view them in 3D!

Build a Molecule - Playground Estimated Duration: 10 minutes Build your own molecule, and challenge yourself to build the biggest molecule you can. Find patterns in names of similar compounds, and compare their structures.

Matter Printer Estimated Duration: 15 minutes You are a new scientist on a spaceship, and with the help of your A.I. assistant, you will print matter to help a colony that is building on the planet below.

Basketball Master Estimated Duration: 12 minutes Shoot a basketball through the hoop and answer some questions along the way! The game does not have any instructional content, it simply has review questions spread throughout.

Galaxy Escape Estimated Duration: 20 minutes 10 Bright Monsters have been captured in space and they need your help to cross the galaxy jumping between platforms, finding them, and releasing them by correctly answering each question. Each monster that you release and unlock will be available to play with in the next level, in the search for the next monster. In your journey, you’ll be able to find power-ups, like ‘Double points’ and ‘Slow down’, which can be activated by finding gems, and their duration can be extended by correctly answering a question. Unlock and release the 10 different monsters and a spaceship along 10 different levels, while you make the most possible points.

Molecules and Compounds Estimated Duration: 5 minutes This video explains how all matter, from the air we breathe to the water we drink, is composed of atoms, the fundamental building blocks of the universe. Atoms, the smallest particles, combine to form molecules and compounds, creating the diverse substances we see. Elements, represented on the periodic table, are pure forms of matter that bond in countless ways. Molecules form when two or more atoms bond together, while compounds consist of atoms from different elements. This video explores the basics of atoms, molecules, and compounds, highlighting their impact on our universe and the limitless possibilities of chemical interactions. Understanding these basics helps us appreciate the complexity and beauty of the material world.
