Decimal Squares' Educational Games

Eight free online math games are available here. Your child will probably find the interface very easy to use, and the instructions straightforward and clear. The site was created by an experienced mathematician and teacher, and is designed to make math practice fun and engaging. Some of the games will have your child adding numbers with decimal points; others will have her rounding up. Several games are modeled on other games, like blackjack, darts and concentration. You may need to download a special plug-in to make the games work on your computer, but it's free of charge.

Free Decimal Games from Free-Training-Tutorial.com

More than a dozen simple computer games on decimals are offered here. Some of them feature photographic images, while others use basic computer graphics for popular themes like outer space or the ocean. The games are geared toward 4th and 5th graders. The easier games ask your child to choose which digit in a 3-digit integer is in the tenth, hundredth or thousandth position, while the harder ones require adding and subtracting decimals or changing them into fractions.

Free Decimal Games from MrNussbaum.com

A teacher-run educational site, MrNussbaum.com is a good place to find dozens of free math study materials, including many online decimal games. Many of the games have a hand-made feel, with basic interface and not a lot of distracting graphics. One thing your child may like is that some of the games use real-life scenarios, like counting money in a cash register.

You can find many other free, math-related activities here as well as study materials in other school subjects. One feature enables your child to create graphs and charts and to measure statistics on them. Science, geography, language arts and history are also covered, and nothing on the site comes with a fee.
