To convert between percents, fractions and decimals, compare percents to each other and to fractions

Number Factory is a Grade 6 game for converting and ordering fractions, decimals, and percents. A 5-by-5 grid is filled with mixed representations, and students search for connected sequences that increase in value as they move horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. To build a valid path, students have to compare unlike forms and convert mentally when needed.

Use it in a small group when students are learning to move flexibly among fractions, decimals, and percents. Ask players to justify the order of a sequence by converting selected values to a common representation.
