Discount
Discount is an engaging and educational game that immerses players in real-world shopping and financial scenarios. Perfect for classrooms, homeschool settings, or family game nights, this interactive activity brings players face-to-face with over 400 unique challenges as they “shop” for furniture, clothing, appliances, and more. Each round presents new problem-solving opportunities—no two sets of challenges are alike—keeping gameplay fresh, dynamic, and full of critical thinking. As players make their purchases, they practice a wide range of essential math and financial skills. The game offers extensive experience in translating among fractions, decimals, and percents, computing discounts, and calculating percentage and fractional savings using a calculator.
Players also learn to round savings accurately, make correct payments and change, and record transactions meticulously. These hands-on exercises help reinforce practical math applications while building financial literacy in a fun, engaging way. Designed for 2–4 players, Discount encourages both independent thinking and collaborative learning, making it ideal for small group instruction or enrichment activities. It’s an excellent tool for helping students build confidence in applying math to everyday situations—skills they’ll use well beyond the classroom. Ages 10 and up, for Grades 5-12.
