5th grade Math Games

Fifth grade brings decimals, volume, operations with fractions and the order of operations. The games on this page cover those topics with rounds that ramp in difficulty, so a student who starts comfortably is soon stretched. You will find decimal place value, mixed numbers with unlike denominators, volume of boxes and expressions with parentheses. Rounds take about five minutes. They suit a station rotation in class, or a short practice session at home before dinner.
