    Description

    Are you looking for holiday and seasonal math activities to keep your 4th and 5th grade students engaged when maintaining attention is sometimes difficult? 

    In this seasonal math activities bundle, students use cooperative learning and their math problem solving skills to solve math challenges and "escape the room." 

    Each fun, engaging, and self-grading resource in this bundle is presented via Google Forms and includes three differentiated levels of challenge with 5-6 problem solving tasks in each challenge. This resource is great for team building and is the perfect way to celebrate the season!  

    Note: The St. Patrick’s Day Digital Escape Room includes one challenge. 

    Why buy the bundle?

    Each seasonal or holiday-themed digital escape room will be added to this bundle! At this time, there is no specific timeline for completion; however, this bundle will include many of the holidays and celebrations students experience throughout the school year. Each time a new resource is added, the price will increase to reflect the total value of the resources.

    What’s unique about this pack?

    This bundle is designed to: 

    ❤️ Engage students at a time when attention to task is difficult

    ❤️ Build critical thinking and math problem solving skills

    ❤️ Encourage cooperative learning and mathematical communication

    ❤️ Celebrate holidays and the seasons!

    What skills do the challenges cover? 

    Students use basic math skills and the following problem solving strategies to complete the challenges.

    • guess and check
    • make a list or a table
    • look for a pattern
    • use objects
    • draw a picture
    • logical thinking
    • work backwards

    What is a digital escape room activity?

    A digital escape room activity is a collaborative learning experience for students where teams solve seasonal and holiday problem solving challenges to unlock “digital” locks and earn clues to “escape” the room.  

    How does a digital escape room work?

    A digital escape room activity is like a physical escape room; however, instead of unlocking real lockboxes, students solve problem solving tasks and use a code to unlock “digital” locks. Students then earn a letter they can use to solve a riddle and escape the room after completing all the tasks.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Very engaging for students around the holidays. Students in my class worked in partners and engaged for almost two periods. Illustrations are cute and problems solving is challenging.~ April S.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This worked perfectly to celebrate the holidays with my class. I launched all the three difficulty levels at the same time in Google Classroom. Students worked through each level at their own pace in small breakout rooms. ~ Eileen B.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great resource for some holiday fun! My students love engaging activities like this one!~ Kellie P.

    I hope this product helps your students celebrate the season! -The Routty Math Teacher

    Standards

    Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. Mathematically proficient students start by explaining to themselves the meaning of a problem and looking for entry points to its solution. They analyze givens, constraints, relationships, and goals. They make conjectures about the form and meaning of the solution and plan a solution pathway rather than simply jumping into a solution attempt. They consider analogous problems, and try special cases and simpler forms of the original problem in order to gain insight into its solution. They monitor and evaluate their progress and change course if necessary. Older students might, depending on the context of the problem, transform algebraic expressions or change the viewing window on their graphing calculator to get the information they need. Mathematically proficient students can explain correspondences between equations, verbal descriptions, tables, and graphs or draw diagrams of important features and relationships, graph data, and search for regularity or trends. Younger students might rely on using concrete objects or pictures to help conceptualize and solve a problem. Mathematically proficient students check their answers to problems using a different method, and they continually ask themselves, "Does this make sense?" They can understand the approaches of others to solving complex problems and identify correspondences between different approaches.
    Model with mathematics. Mathematically proficient students can apply the mathematics they know to solve problems arising in everyday life, society, and the workplace. In early grades, this might be as simple as writing an addition equation to describe a situation. In middle grades, a student might apply proportional reasoning to plan a school event or analyze a problem in the community. By high school, a student might use geometry to solve a design problem or use a function to describe how one quantity of interest depends on another. Mathematically proficient students who can apply what they know are comfortable making assumptions and approximations to simplify a complicated situation, realizing that these may need revision later. They are able to identify important quantities in a practical situation and map their relationships using such tools as diagrams, two-way tables, graphs, flowcharts and formulas. They can analyze those relationships mathematically to draw conclusions. They routinely interpret their mathematical results in the context of the situation and reflect on whether the results make sense, possibly improving the model if it has not served its purpose.
