To subtract fractions with like denominators, to write fractions in lowest terms

War of Thrones is a Grade 4 fraction game for subtracting fractions with like denominators and writing answers in lowest terms. A card directs the player to a numbered problem on the shared board, and a correct simplified difference allows the player to claim the matching fraction from the pool with a counter.

Use it for small-group review when students are practicing subtraction of like-denominator fractions and simplification in the same task. Because each answer must match a fraction already displayed on the board, students get a visual check on whether the result is reasonable.
