MartialMath:fractions is a unique and engaging math game that teaches and reinforces understanding in fractions. Using a “Martial Arts” theme, MartialMath engages the user a fun and challenging way that encourages the player to strive for higher levels. The player begins as a novice “White Belt” and progresses though the levels to a “Black Belt” Master of fractions. The player can see their incremental progress as the Katana (Sword) fills in as the player gets more and more correct answers. Completion of a level “promotes” the player through the Belt Ranks.

Through the ranks students will learn and master “equivalent fractions,” “reducing or simplifying fractions,” and determining “fractional parts of a whole number.” The game play is specifically designed to help students understand number patterns found in fractions. Understanding the patterns leads to student’s higher order understanding of fractions and the four basic arithmetic functions – add, subtract, multiply and divide.

Developed by martial artists and educators, MartialMath challenges the learner to employ a myriad of problem solving skills to solve the problem. Playing MartialMath is a great way for learners to learn, practice, and master their understanding of fractions.

MartialMath is Common Core embedded and calls into use multiple common core standards in a true problem solving manner. Ideal for helping students discover the relationships between the various mathematical functions.

MartialMath supports the eight mathematical practices:

1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them
2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively
3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others
4. Model with mathematics
5. Use appropriate tools strategically
6. Attend to precision
7. Look for and make use of structure
8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning
