Fractions, if taught right, don’t have to be painful. Teaching about fractions shows how parts make a whole amount, which will assist in science projects and culinary achievements. Through the medium of flashcards, learning fractions can be turned into a game, to see who can recognize, subtract, multiply, divide or add fractions faster.
Jig saw puzzles are made of small cardboard or wood pieces with interlocking concave and convex edges. Through searching, organizing and experimentation, the whole picture becomes gradually clearer as more pieces fit together. The picture on the front of the container that the puzzle came in assists in keeping the goal in sight. Puzzles can be turned into games by seeing which team of people can put the puzzle together faster.
Sports such as football, soccer, baseball, cricket, volley ball, softball and rugby are all games that require many people to act as a group, in opposition to another group of people acting as a whole. Each person in the group has an important part to play, and players must learn how to work together or else they won't win.
Board games use boards made of sections. Games like “Snakes and Ladders” and “Life” have paths made of sections, which can either help or hinder your progress. Rolling dice controls where you can move. Board games like chess and checkers are made entirely of sections, and it is strategy and how the pieces move that determines where the player may go.
