SAVE 20% BY PURCHASING THESE RESOURCES IN A BUNDLE! Set your students up for success this Winter Season with these engaging seasonal resources!
The weeks before and after winter break are very exciting for students as they look forward to, and share stories from their winter celebrations. It can be hard to find math resources that are aligned to the standards and also keep students engaged during this exciting time which is why I made these story problems. The word problems in this resource all lend themselves to visual models and are very helpful for teaching other problem-solving strategies such as labelling and finding the unknown.
The word problems and fluency practice in all included resources focus on whole number multiplication and division, as well as addition/subtraction and mixed-operation story problems.
This BUNDLE includes:
- Three winter seasonal & differentiated math resources
- One Winter Wonderland Plan a Party Project (52 pages)--digital and printable
- One Differentiated Winter Math Story Problem Resource (Each page is a fun seasonal theme, and includes seasonal-themed word problems) 3 different levels and 12 questions per level--digital and printable
- One Snowman Solutions multiplication and division fluency practice resource (58 pages)--printable
- An answer key for every page.
Description of the Winter Wonderland Party Project: There are 2 versions of the project, designed to be differentiated for your class and to help scaffold students towards independent problem solving.
- Problem Solving Support: The first version includes story problem solving graphic organizers for each problem to help scaffold your students towards solving the single and multi-step story problems. This version is great for your students that need to practice fluency and need support making story problems more accessible.
- Independent Problem Solving: The second version does not include the graphic organizers, so students need to interpret the problems themselves. This provides a more challenging opportunity for students to determine the steps to solve each problem as well as which operation to use. This is great for your students who are fluent in their facts but need to work on interpreting story problems independently.
Each version of the project includes:
- A 14 page project (with 5 different parts, invite guests, decorations, food & drink, games and total cost). Includes a real recipe for Snow Cones as well as fun winter game ideas!
- 2 pages of project extensions
- A printable and digital version of the project (GOOGLE SLIDES LINKS INCLUDED)!
- An answer key (note: the answer key includes most answers but does not include every answer because some answers depend on student choices).
Skills included in this project are:
- Multiplication and division fact fluency
- Single step story problems
- Multi-step contextual problems including addition, subtraction, multiplication and division
- Interpreting factors, products, dividends, divisors and quotients
- Solving contextual problems involving the four operations including interpreting remainders (there are only a few remainders to interpret, so it is an introduction to remainders, appropriate for third grade).
- Multiplying one-digit whole numbers by multiples of 10
- Solve contextual problems involving multiplicative comparison (there is one multiplicative comparison problem included and it is in the format of a multiplication table--so it is appropriate for third grade).

- add to
- take from
- put together/take apart
- compare
- result unknown
- change unknown
- multi-step word problems

Mixed word problem structure with start unknown, change unknown and result unknown as well as compare problems and missing factor multiplication.

- Snowflake: advanced problem-solving skills. Multi-step word problems. Addition and Subtraction within 5,000. Mixed word problem structures with unknown in all places as well as compare problems, most which require bar models to solve. Missing factor and division problems included. Most multi-step problems are two and three-step problems. Equal groups and array multiplication problems included and multiplication of two digit by two digit (up to 20 x 20).
