Math Links: Decimals

Picture
Learn about decimals with fun games and websites!  Click on the title of the game to go to the website.  All of the game links open in a new window.  If the link doesn't open, check to see if your web browser is blocking pop-ups and click to allow the website to open in a new window.  Have fun learning!


 

Battle Ship Decimal Game - Try to sink as many ships as you can by typing in the decimal value for the location of each ship. The decimal will control where each bomb drops. Direct hits earn you a higher accuracy score. Sink enough ships within the time limit to move on to the next level. This is a fun, fast-paced game from BrainPop that helps you learn to estimate decimals on a number line.

Pop the Balloon Decimal Game - Pop the correct balloons to continue the decimal pattern. Work fast to pop the correct balloons. After six levels, you'll receive your score. Type in your first name or initial and see where you rank on the high scorers list.

Decimal Blackjack - In this game, you will play against the robot. The object is to get as close as possible to 2 without going over by adding the decimals on your cards. If your sum is greater than the sum of the robot's cards without going over 2.0, then you win that round. Or, if the robot's sum is larger than 2.0 and yours is not, you also win that round. The first player to win three rounds wins the game. "Hit me" means you want another card; "Hold" means that you are going to keep the cards you have and the robot can have his turn. Good luck!

Decimal Speedway - Practice multiplying decimals by 1-4 while racing around a track. You choose a decimal card and then spin the factor spinner to get your factor. Correctly multiply your card by the spinner number to advance that number of spaces. Watch out; your opponent is going to try to overtake you!

The Legend of Dick and Dom DECIMALS! - Play another silly and creative Dick and Dom medieval adventure to help the characters find the largest decimal. This is a real challenge - adding decimals mentally, converting metric measurements, and converting percents and fractions into decimals! For the advanced decimal masters among us.
(http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/ks2bitesize/maths/number/decimals/play.shtml)

 

Hungry Puppies - This game is like Hungry, Hungry Hippos! Click on pairs of dog bones that add up to the target number to feed your puppy. The puppies with the most pairs wins. This is a very challenging game that requires a lot of fast mental math! You can play other people or the computer, but you'll have to add very quickly to get a high score. Get ready for a great brain work-out.
