⭐6 THANKSGIVING GAMES:⭐

• Acorn Facts: Multiplication Facts

Students cut out the cards and race to see who can answer the most squirrel multiplication fact cards in one minute.

• Thanksgiving Dinner Game: Multi-Digit Addition and Subtraction

It's a 2-4 person game where students try to be the first person to fill up their plate for Thanksgiving dinner. Each time a student answers a game card question, they get to take a piece of food to put on their plate. There are also chance cards in the deck that may help a student or put them back a few paces during the game! My students LOVE this game at Thanksgiving each year and enjoy picking out which "foods they will eat" from the middle.

• Can You Get Home in Time for Thanksgiving Gameboard: Word Problems

In this game, students race around the gameboard to see who can get home first (get to the finish!). Students answer a word problem card before each turn.

• Animal Escape Game: Multiplication and Division Word Problems

Uh oh! All of the animals escaped from the farm the night before Thanksgiving! The goal is to find 3 turkeys before the sun comes up on Thanksgiving morning. Solve each word problem. When you get an answer correct, you get to draw an animal out of the middle. If you pull out a rooster, that means the sun’s up and you have to return all of your turkeys to the bag! Whoever gets 3 turkeys first wins!

• Thanksgiving Turkeys: Multiplication Facts Game to Play with the Whole Class!

This Thanksgiving math game is perfect for multiplication fact fluency! Third grade students will get extra practice with their multiplication facts while completing a fun team-building game at the same time. It's the perfect way for students to get math fact practice while collaborating during fall.

• Step 1: Print everything out. Print a set of feathers and a set of turkeys for each team that is playing.
• Step 2: Cut everything out. Cut out the feathers you chose to print.
• Step 3: Give each team a set of feathers and a set of turkeys in their corner of the room.
• Step 4: Explain that students have to match up the correct feathers with each turkey. It’s race to see which team can finish sorting the feathers correctly first.

• Thanksgiving Village Game: Division Facts

Each time you answer a card correctly, you choose a circle card randomly. The circle card tells you whether to go forward or backward! The first person to finish wins!

⭐DIGITAL HIDE AND SEEK GAME FOR THANKSGIVING:⭐

Have you ever wanted a FUN activity that is 100% editable and can be customized to any age level / any standard you are teaching? Do you need a game that you can use with the whole class OR just a few students? Something that can be used over and over again without becoming boring? Look no further! Every student I've ever encountered has LOVED the concept of hide-and-seek. In this DIGITAL hide and seek game, students are tasked with finding the hidden object by guessing answers to questions on the screen. In this version, all slides are Thanksgiving-themed and are just right for any holiday season!

And the coolest part? It can work for ANY subject and ANY grade level! Every slide and every question can be edited however you'd like!

How to Play Hide and Seek:

1. This game is played in PowerPoint. Drag the object on the left behind any picture on the screen so it is “hiding”. Repeat this on each page so all 10 objects are hidden.
2. Put the game in “Slide Show” mode to play!
3. Have students “seek” where the object is by calling on students to say answers to the questions on the screen. Click to see if their guess is right.
4. When you click each picture, it’ll magically disappear to see if the student has “found” the object!
5. Whichever student finds the hidden object gets to come to the front of the room and call on students to guess on the next slide!
6. Use the blank version to create whatever skill practice you’d like—math facts, letter recognition, spelling words…the sky is the limit!

Included Hide and Seek Pre-Made Games for You:

1. Addition Facts to 20
2. Mixed Review of Addition Facts
3. Addition Double Facts
4. Subtraction Facts to 20
5. Mixed Review of Subtraction Facts
6. Multiplication Facts from 1-10
7. Mixed Review of Multiplication Facts
8. Division Facts from 1-10
9. Mixed Review of Division Facts
10. Identify Numbers
11. Blank Version (Make your own questions!)

Why Buy?

Students practice addition and subtraction with a Thanksgiving turkey dinner, rounding turkeys to the nearest ten (with cutting and gluing as well!), practice putting geometric turkeys into the correct categories, practice their multiplication facts with acorns, practice identifying and comparing fractions with Thanksgiving turkeys and pies, have to complete error analysis problems that analyze what is wrong with multiplication equations based on the strategy used (and it incorporates writing too!), use scarecrows to help them solve division equations using a variety of strategies, practice identifying patterns using Thanksgiving owls, solve Thanksgiving real-world word problems that help students learn fun facts about first Thanksgiving, help Thanksgiving kids find the missing factors with pumpkins, and help reunite turkeys that need to find their fact families.

This resource is intended for third grade, but has a lot of activities that fourth grade students would benefit from as well as remediation or practice activities. These 16 activities make the Thanksgiving season in your classroom more fun in math class!

Please note: All activities are printables except for the Hide and Seek Game.
