Fractionator is a game for fourth graders focusing on the topic of fractions. The game teaches the extended understanding of fraction equivalence and ordering. Players are asked to place visualizations of fractions in the correct order.

 +
On Easy mode fractions are displayed as “pies” which makes it easy for the player to rearrange the cards from least to most filled in “pie”. Medium mode introduces fractions, displayed with a number over a number,  along with the “pie” cards. This makes the player think a bit more about the order of the cards. Hard mode has only fractions and no “pie” cards. This mode gives no visual representation of the fraction on each card.

There is a Standard Mode and a Timed Mode in the game. The Standard Mode allows the player to play the game without the stress of being timed. Timed Mode times the player which allows the player to see how fast they can think and complete a round.
