To identify rational and irrational numbers [8.NS.A.1].
LET’S HUNT is a Grade 8 number-sense game for distinguishing rational numbers from irrational numbers. Students work through cards filled with different numerical forms, marking rational values one way and irrational values another before moving to the next card. The repeated classification pushes students to look beyond surface appearance and decide whether each number can be represented as a ratio of integers.
Use it for partner or small-group review after students have learned the difference between rational and irrational numbers. The card-by-card scoring makes it easy to identify which forms are causing confusion. Create a free Find a Math Game account to generate teacher-ready lesson support for LET’S HUNT.
