Activity  (...)
Activity: Students play a generalized version of connect four, gaining the chance to place a piece on the board by answering arithmetic questions (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division). Parameters: time, difficulty level, types of questions. Arithmetic Four is one of the Interactivate assessment games.

Activity: Arithmetic Quiz gives the user randomized questions to answer on arithmetic with whole numbers and integers. Parameters: Level of difficulty and types of questions. Arithmetic Quiz is one of the Interactivate assessment quizzes.

Activity: The same as "Bounded Fraction Pointer" but there is no arrow to help the user determine the value of a fraction between the two endpoints. Bounded Fraction Finder is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Determine the value of two fractions you have chosen (which are represented as points on a number line). Then find a fraction whose value is between your two fractions (using an arrow on the number line as a guide) and determine its value. Bounded Fraction Pointer is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Enter your own data categories and the value of each category to create a pie chart. There are also built in data sets which can be viewed.

Activity: Color numbers in Pascal's Triangle by rolling a number and then clicking on all entries that are multiples of the number rolled, thereby practicing multiplication tables, investigating number patterns, and investigating fractal patterns. Coloring Multiples in Pascal's Triangle is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Color numbers in Pascal's Triangle by rolling a number and then clicking on all entries that have the same remainder when divided by the number rolled, thereby practicing division and remainders, investigating number patterns, and investigating fractal patterns. Coloring Remainders in Pascal's Triangle is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Converts fractions to decimals and decimals to fractions. Observe the relationships between fractions and decimals.

Activity: This activity helps you understand how to balance an equation. You input the term and the operation. The activity uses that term and operates on both sides of the equation. It then displays the resulting equation. Equation Solver is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Visually represent two unique fractions that are equivalent to a given fraction. The fractional value is shown on a number line after you check to see if your fraction is correct. Equivalent Fraction Finder is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Visually represent two unique fractions that are equivalent to a given fraction. The fractional value is shown on a number line as you color in the fraction. Equivalent Fraction Pointer is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Visualize factors through building rectangular areas on a grid. First enter all the factorizations of a number, then draw each factor set as an area on the grid. Factorize is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Visualize factors through building rectangular areas on a grid. As you draw each factor set on the grid, the factors will be listed. Factorize 2 is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Run a simulation of how a fire will spread through a stand of trees, learning about probability and chaos. Parameters: Probability that a tree catches fire if its neighbor is on fire.

Activity: Determine the value of two given fractions represented as points on a number line. Then find a fraction whose value is between the two given fractions and determine its value. Fraction Finder is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Students play a generalized version of connect four, gaining the chance to place a piece after simplifying fractions, converting fractions to decimals and percentages, and answering algebra questions involving fractions. Choose difficulty level, question types, and time. Fraction Four is one of the Interactivate assessment games.

Activity: Determine the value of two given fractions represented as points on a number line. Then find a fraction whose value is between the two given fractions (using an arrow on the number line as a guide) and determine its value. Fraction Pointer is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Test your fraction skills by answering questions. This quiz asks you to simplify fractions, convert fractions to decimals and percentages, and answer algebra questions involving fractions. Choose difficulty level, question types, and time. Fraction Quiz is one of the Interactivate assessment quizzes.

Activity: Visualize fractions by coloring in the appropriate portions of either a circle or a square, then order those fractions from least to greatest. Fraction Sorter is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Mixtures allows exploration of percents through two piles of colored and uncolored chips. The user must decide how many chips to color to create the desired percentage of colored chips compared to the total pile. Mixtures is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Visually explore counting and place value with different number bases, from base 2 to base 16, and up to the hundreds place using a clock like interface. The activity also allows you to look at the numbers on the clock in base 10 or in your other chosen base to explore the relationship between those values.

Activity: Students play a generalized version of connect four, gaining the chance to place a piece on the board by answering order of operations questions (addition/subtraction, multiplication/division, exponents, and parentheses). Parameters: time, difficulty level, types of questions. Order of Operations Four is one of the Interactivate assessment games.

Activity: This activity allows the user to practice order of operations with addition/subtraction, multiplication/division, exponents, and parentheses. Order of Operations Quiz is one of the Interactivate assessment quizzes.

Activity: Create a pie chart, adjusting the size of the divisions using your mouse or by entering values. Parameters: Number of sections, size of sections, whether to use percents or fractions.

Activity: Learn about number patterns in sequences and recursions by specifying a starting number, multiplier, and add-on. The numbers in the sequence are displayed on a graph, and they are also listed below the graph.

Activity: Determine the value of a given fraction represented as a point on a number line. Then find a fraction whose value is a given fraction. Fraction Pointer is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Determine the value of a given fraction represented as a point on a number line. Then find a fraction whose value is the given fraction using an arrow on the number line as a guide. Single Fraction Pointer is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.

Activity: Step through the tortoise and hare race, based on Zeno's paradox, to learn about the multiplication of fractions and about convergence of an infinite sequence of numbers.
