Description

Christmas, math, coloring, and student engagement--what could be a better December math activity?

In this product, students in groups will solve Christmas word problems that reviews percent skills such as including sales tax for Christmas presents, a coupon with percent off for Christmas purchases, percent of presents under the tree, and more. With each problem, a team earns "a piece of the village." (Example: If they get the bank problem correct, they earn the bank. If they get the fire station problem correct, they earn the fire station.)

Teams will then color their buildings and create their village on their desks. (I have my students attach the buildings to toilet paper rolls where they will stand up, but that is optional.) I even have someone come "judge" the villages for a good-hearted, fun competition (also optional on the judging).

It's a fantastic way to enjoy the Christmas holiday with math!
