Rational Exhibit

rational numbers · ordering rational numbers

To put rational numbers in order.

Rational Exhibit is a Grade 6 game for ordering rational numbers shown in different forms. Card colors determine whether a value is a whole number, decimal, or fraction, and students generate several mixed representations before arranging them in order. The game requires students to compare unlike forms rather than relying on a single notation.

Use it for partner or small-group review when students are learning to compare fractions, decimals, and whole numbers on one number line. Converting selected values to a common form can help students justify the final order. Create a free Find a Math Game account to generate teacher-ready lesson support for Rational Exhibit.
