The work was undertaken with Mexican students attending primary school grade six (11 year olds). In designing the activities, our work was based on the studies of researchers who have focused on such topics, as well as on the work of researchers in the field of computer sciences and education technology. Support of the activities designed is found in psycho-pedagogy, in knowledge of mathematics and in the fields of computer sciences and education technology. %K Ratio %K Proportion %K Interactive Activities %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=3015
