Looking for a captivating way to teach your 5th-grade students how to multiply fractions? Knockout is the perfect solution! It’s an engaging math game that challenges players to multiply proper fractions and mixed numbers whilst having fun. The game promotes active thinking and learning without the players even realizing it. Students who answer questions correctly get to eliminate their opponents from the game, making it even more thrilling. Your 5th graders will love playing Knockout and learning at the same time!
A QUICK LOOK AT KNOCKOUT™ & HOW IT IS PLAYED
1 – Divide your class into 2 single file lines
2 – Display the first slide
3 – The player at the front of his/her line faces off against the player from the other team: the first player to answer his/her question correctly wins and returns to the end of the line!
4 – The player who does not win goes to sit on the team “bench” to cheer on the team!
✋ BUT WAIT: That’s not all.
If a player faces these slides, the following could happen:
✅ Double Free Pass: Both players automatically get to stay in the game!
✅ Double Knockout™: Both players are automatically out!
✅ Knockout™/Free Pass: One player leaves, one stays!
✅ Pick a Pal: Choose a player from the bench to return to the game!
