In this game I have been playing a fraction game to help me with my fractions . It was very very hard although I am supposed to be smart by now but actually I am a bt kuku . But anyways I came last and there is nothing I can do about it but unless I tried my best on answering a few of the fractions . In this game I learnt that when you add fractions you go the answer in your head but the answer is not there so you need to multiply , divide , or subtract the number in the fraction to find your answer .

In this Maths game it was pretty hard because I don’t really know much about decimals but I wanted to challenge myself. I think this game can help me to learn decimals if I keep on playing it . I think this is another goal for me to work on.  Knowing my decimals  will really help me to do better at school.
