Description
If you want a fraction review that covers more than one narrow skill, this bundle gives you three different digital escape rooms built around major 4th grade fraction and decimal standards. Each storyline has its own puzzles and focus, so you can use the games throughout a unit or save the bundle for cumulative review.
Escape the Bakery
Students solve fraction clues to escape the bakery while practicing:
- Reducing fractions to simplest form
- Finding missing numerators or denominators in equivalent fractions
- Comparing fractions using models, benchmarks, or common denominators
- Finding a lowest common denominator
- Using numerator and denominator vocabulary
- Solving a simple substitution cipher
Free the Yeti
This broader fraction-skills mission includes:
- Comparing fractions with unlike denominators
- Converting mixed numbers to improper fractions
- Adding and subtracting fractions and mixed numbers with like denominators, including regrouping
- Multiplying fractions by whole numbers
- Creating equivalent fractions
- Solving fraction and mixed-number word problems
The Legend of the Lost Mine
Students connect fractions and decimals as they:
- Create equivalent fractions with denominators of 10 and 100
- Write fractions as decimals and decimals as fractions
- Compare decimals to the hundredths
- Recognize equivalent fractions and decimals
- Read fractions and decimals on number lines
Designed for easy digital implementation
All three activities are digital-only escape rooms automated through Google Forms. They are no prep and self-checking, with no physical clues to hide. Students do not need Google Classroom or email accounts; any internet-connected device can access the games. Optional recording pages, number lines, place-value tools, answer keys, teacher tips, and success signs are included where appropriate.
The Legend of the Lost Mine is a shorter “Quick Escape” that may take about 20–45 minutes. Completion time for the other games varies by the students and grouping. Use the bundle for fraction centers, review, enrichment, test preparation, or an engaging alternative to a worksheet packet.
