Description
It’s a busy day on the farm! In this interactive Digi-Game, students complete different farm jobs by correctly answering questions about decimal numbers. Each task brings the farm to life - from planting seeds to harvesting fruit, fixing broken fences and even tuning up the tractor.
Students are challenged with 20 carefully designed questions that require them to interpret, compare and order decimal numbers - including those with more than two decimal places. Each correct answer unlocks the next step in a farm task, creating a satisfying sense of progress with every response.
Once all questions are complete, students are shown a summary sheet of everything they accomplished on the farm that day - a great way to reflect on their success!
Key Learning Outcomes:
- ✅ Interpret decimal numbers to the thousandths place
- ✅ Compare and order decimals using place value understanding
- ✅ Apply reasoning to justify the position of numbers on a number line
- ✅ Strengthen fluency with decimal concepts through repeated practise
- ✅ Engage with mathematical thinking in a meaningful, task-based format
How to Play:
- Students answer a series of 20 decimal comparison and ordering questions.
- Each correct answer progresses them through a step of a farm task.
- Some tasks require multiple steps - like planting, growing and harvesting crops.
- Once all questions are answered, students receive a visual summary of completed tasks.
- The game can be replayed for revision or to improve accuracy and fluency.
Ideas for Classroom Use:
- 💡 Use during decimals units for consolidation of place value and ordering
- 💡 Ideal for Years 5–6 students needing practise beyond hundredths
- 💡 Great for rotations, targeted support or independent review tasks
- 💡 Pair with real-world investigations such as ordering prices, measurements or data
Top Teacher Tips:
- 💛 Let students personalise their experience by choosing from six characters before the game begins
- 💛 Select the number of players or teams at the start of the game to suit individual, paired or group play
- 💛 Send the QR code home for students to continue practising decimal skills in a fun way
Let’s Farm – Ordering Decimals turns number sense into a hands-on farming adventure where accuracy leads to productivity and mathematical growth!
