Majestic One utilizes the powerful visual and manipulative impact of pattern blocks to build understanding of key fraction concepts and relationships. The game is based on solid learning theory plus extensive classroom experience. Students will utilize sight, manipulation, communication, listening, and evaluation skills to impact learning.
The object of the game is for players to claim fractional pattern blocks as they travel around the board and score by trading them for "ones". The first player to build six "ones" wins the game! By constantly identifying fractional parts, players build strong mental images of their relative sizes, equivalents, and sums of "one" in various combinations. At Level I, players become familiar with halves, thirds, fourths, and sixths. Level II adds twelfths. Fourths, sixths, and twelfths serve as common denominators.
Contents include: Double-sides game board, Cardstock Fraction Pattern Blocks, 4 markers, a spinner, and instructions. For 2-4 players.
