Hands-on/experiential learning : This experience helps
them construct knowledge instead of just memorizing
math facts.
Concrete representations of abstract math : The ratio
problems use visual elements (shaded shapes) to help
players understand proportional relationships.
Logical thinking through structured steps : The game
encourages systematic problem-solving:
- Identify a coordinate (logical deduction).
- Solve a ratio (conceptual understanding).
- Apply the ratio to divide a number (application).
This step-by-step process supports their growing logical
skills, which Piaget emphasized for this age group.

Piaget believed that children in the Concrete Operational Stage
(ages 7-11) develop logical thinking but still need hands-on
experiences to understand abstract concepts. This game aligns
