Bloxorz logic game

Screen Shot 2016-01-23 at 18.16.11

This is a fun blocks game you can play online: you need to be good at working out how to turn and move the blocks to get it to stay on the platform and get it into the right position to drop through the hole. I found it quite tricky! I expect you will be much better at it! Click on the image to have a go.

Fractions to decimals – online game

Screen Shot 2016-01-16 at 09.00.55

This game will give you practise in converting fractions to decimals. Try to do it without using the ‘fraculator’ (just type in the numbers you know). That way you will get through the game more quickly and practise your mental methods for converting fractions to decimals and collect ‘bio-rods’ to help defeat the Robots!
