Toys and Games Reviews of Auntie Pasta's Fraction Game
Customer Review: Fun fractions but very basic
Summary: 3 Stars
If your goal is to use this game to get your children to understand basic fractions you won't be disappointed. If however you've been working with fractions and your child understands them (say you involving them in cooking where measuring is required), you may find this too basic. While it's great to know that 4 quarters make a whole and you can add 1/2 and 2/4 and get a whole, that's about the extent of the creativity this game offers. My child gets frustrated because other than those combinations, (and the regular 4/4 etc.) he can't add the pieces of pies with different toppings and make a whole pie. Good, but not great. Could be much much better or perhaps the company could offer a more advanced game?
Description of Auntie Pasta's Fraction Game
Grades 1 & up. Players collect the different sized slices of Auntie Pasta's pizza to fill up the pizza pans, making this a fun way to introduce your students to fractions. Includes 12" x 17" games board, pizza fraction cards, and spinner. 2-4 players.Someone's in the kitchen with Auntie Pasta, cooking up pizza-specific ways to teach younger children the basics of beginning fractions. This game for two to four players includes a spinner and a playing board with circles divided into halves, thirds, or quarters. Players receive cardboard pieces of pizza in different sizes (with corresponding numerical fractions on the back). The sections are placed on the circles during the game to create complete pizzas, with tiny cardboard pizza boxes to cover each completed pie. The game requires very little reading (just a few basic words on the spinner), and it's a good way to introduce the concepts of pie-chart fractional divisions as well as simpler fractional concepts. Adaptable for preschoolers as well as for older siblings, it's a good choice for home schoolers or family game night--with pizza for dinner, of course! --Marcie Bovetz
