Children's Software Review: Math Missions Grades 3-5: The Amazing Arcade Adventure (Scholastic) Related Links The cartoon city of Spectacle City, founded by Horton Spectacle, was destined to be the greatest city on Earth, but Randall Underling is determined to see it fail. Not only that, the store clerks need help with math. Players step in to help the clerks run their shops, drawing on real-world math skills as they do. This program is outstanding. It keeps children busy, has a clear goal to work towards, and features clever activities that are mostly fun to complete. As children participate in the activities, they earn money. Once they've earned enough money and achieved a set game ranking, they can open up the city's arcade. Not only do children get to play the arcade games as a reward, they actually become owners of the arcade and make business decisions about what games to buy for the arcade, buy ads, and track sales! This business simulation is a fun and educational reward. Of course, children will want to earn more money to keep the arcade alive and thriving, and they need only return to the program's activities in the stores in order to do so. At sign-in, children choose a difficulty level. There are three levels, designed to correspond to third grade, fourth grade, and fifth grade curriculum. The program is probably best for children entering fourth or fifth grade because, as with the Math Missions Grades K-2 program, the math activities are somewhat advanced.

5th Grade Math Home Teacher Resources Notes Real Life Activities: Overview of the Lesson Introduction Real-life activities used in the classroom expose children to math in their everyday world. Review Previous Work Using picture books helps students see how math is used every day. Students used math journals to discuss math topics they had learned previously. The concepts they discussed included fractions, layering and measuring. Group Work Using a recipe is one way to use math in a real-life context. Adjusting recipes allows students to work with fractions. Fractions can also be discussed when cutting a cake. Solving Problems with Students As students work together in small groups teachers can observe difficulties that students have. Individual problems can be solved one-on-one. Problems that many students have can be addressed in whole class discussions. Fractions: A Mini-Lesson One group tried to solve the following multiplication problem: 2/3 x 4 As a whole class the problem was discussed and strategies were shared.
