💡 Fraction Carnival Idea Sprint

In small teams, students begin with a rapid 5-minute silent brainstorm, listing as many Fraction Carnival game ideas as possible that help shoppers compare unlike fractions or generate equivalent fractions. They then use a structured Crazy-8s sketch (fold paper into 8 boxes, 1 minute per sketch) to push beyond obvious ideas. Teams review their empathy maps and HMW statements to ensure ideas address real user quotes (e.g., confusion about different wholes or product sizes). Finally, teams sort ideas into categories (card game, movement game, sorting station, real-product challenge) and star their top 3 based on how well each meets user needs.
