Question: What are some free fun educational computer games for 5th through 8th graders?
The title asks the question. I run a computer lab and need some new educational computer games for my students. They have to be free. They can be puzzles, word games, word searches, Math Games, building games (like civilization), etc. I'd prefer that they were websites but they can also be programs too. My students are getting bored with what I have on the computers, so if anyone can list a few and where to get them I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.
Answer: Oooh FunBrain.com and PBSKids.com has a ton of good games for the younger grades. Scholastic and Discovery Channel are also great sites. My absolute favorite (and my kids too) is Gamequarium.com. This site has a ton of subjects in varying difficulty and is pretty fun for adults too.
Enjoy!!

Question: Math Board Game???? HELP!!!!?
In my math class i have to create a board game heres the project
Develop a board game to practice math skills. The game should be fun and creative but also teach a specific math skill or skills. Examples are money, time, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, graphing, fraction, ect. Think of a creative name for the game. the game must have an actual board to move pieces around. It should have dice or a spinner to determine how many spaces to move on the board. It requires you to write a rule book describing how to play the game and how the winner is determined. Be creative in developing your skill and theme of your game to make it where people will want to play. DON'T COPY A GAME YOUR ALREADY HAVE. - Paper that my teacher gave us
can't copy something from the name examples: mathnoply, Math Trouble, math memory
Answer: what about mathmania and do word problems and if you get it right move 1 space if you get it wrong go 1 space back and have a few captions in the game like moove one space back thats all i have ok so if you dont like im sorry
