Ready...Set...Race!


'Racing' through Integers

Drivers.... 'START YOUR BRAIN'!

Dodge, swerve and steer around different obstacles on the racetrack. You'll need to use your integer skills to win the game! This is a fun and educational game that not only makes you feel like Jeff Gordon (arguably the best race car driver or all time), but it simultaneously allows you to improve your integer skills!

Parents, we've been working on Integers in our Number Sense and Numeration unit in class. We are starting a new unit on integers, seeing how integers are used in our everyday lives.  This comes directly from the Ontario Curriculum Number Sense and Numeration strand, stating that Grade 7's should " identify and compare integers found in real-like"(Ontario Math Curriculum, pg.99). This educational game will keep your students thinking about integers, but in a very noninvasive way.  If you have any questions feel free to contact me!

Have fun racers!!
