  • Early or fast finishers
  • Enrichment
  • GATE (gifted and talented education)
  • Worksheet alternatives
  • Critical thinking skills
  • Student, partner, or small group collaboration
  • anytime during Christmas or winter

This puzzle is great for winter math centers, Christmas, winter, enrichment, GATE (gifted and talented education), December or January activities, early or fast finishers, and more!

This will help address Common Core State Standards 2.NBT.B.7 and 3.NBT.A.2

These puzzles are meant to be somewhat of a challenge. Students will have to keep in mind the shape of the tree. The center pieces will be the most challenging. Tell students to rotate them around until they fit. This is where their critical thinking skills will come into play!

There are two PDF options for eacg puzzle. One option is the tree in its full shape. The other option is the puzzle pieces separate so students do not know the final shape. These “cut out” or "no prep" sheets are meant to be given directly to the students to cut out and put together so they don't know the shape. These will be more challenging. They are no prep – just print and go!

Plus you also get a digital option where the puzzles are available in Google Slides. Assign the page - perhaps via Google Classroom - and students can complete it virtually with no copying needed!

There is a puzzle mat with the actual puzzle pieces so students can put their pieces over the top OR a blank outline as a guide, but not direct help. Use these for students who need a bit more support with the puzzle shape.

You also get writing prompts to use with this shape. I recommend sharing a prompt with the class and putting these up behind or beside the completed puzzle as hall or bulletin board displays.
