Grade 5 Math

For the grade 5 curriculum there is a unit on Division. I found a great interactive website that students will be able to go, to practice division questions and have fun at the same time. The webite is called Fun Brain Math. This is a tic tac toe game, that allows the student to answer different division question and when they get it right, they get an X, and they play tic tac toe against the computer as they try to out smart their opponent. In the game you can choose easy, medium, and hard for levels of divison questions. This is a great game for students to learn about and practice their division skills.
To incorporate this into my class I would allow my students to go this this site to test their knowledge and understanding of division. I would use to throughout the whole semester, when children have free time after they are done their reagularly assigned math questions. They can go on this site and play a fun game and still work on their math. This allows the students to have fun on the computer while still learning and practicing their division.
I think this is a great site and it allows children to have fun while still touching up on their division skills. I believe that this game would allow children to have fun while they were learning about division. Children will want to learn about divison because it is a interactive and competitive game, so they don't want to be get the wrong answers and lose.
