Ratios and Percents Games for Grades 2‑8
Ratios, rates and percents turn up in recipes, maps, sales and sports scores, and these games use those everyday settings. Players build ratio tables, find unit rates to pick the best buy, scale a drawing up or down, and work out discounts and percent change. The idea underneath is proportional thinking: two quantities that grow together at a steady rate. Work through the games in order, starting with ratios, to see how each skill builds on the one before it.
