Turn your classroom into Santa’s business lab with this 10-page, black-and-white “Santa’s Workshop Shark Tank” worksheet pack. Students become Christmas entrepreneurs who design, price, and pitch toys to Santa’s board while practicing decimals, percent, multi-step money problems, graphs, and break-even analysis. Each worksheet includes 10 questions—the final item is a short multi-step challenge to stretch reasoning and communication.
