The Christmas Story

Santa has been busy at the North Pole with all of his helpers making Christmas presents for all of the children around the world. He loads up his sleigh with all of the presents so that they are ready to be delivered on Christmas Eve. Presents big and small have carefully been packed. As Santa comes back to load the last present he discovers that his sleigh is missing!!! How will he deliver the presents?

It is your students jobs as math inspectors to find out who has taken the missing sleigh. Luckily the person has left 5 Christmas math clues for them to solve to discover who has taken it.

This Xmas case includes

• 2 digit addition with regrouping
• Mapping using coordinates on 2 axis
• 3 digit addition with regrouping using an algorithm
• Subtraction from 100
• Multiplication of single digits

These math mysteries are designed for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade students. Could also be used with struggling 5th grade students that need a little extra work and reinforcement in adding and takeaways (or advanced, gifted and talented 2nd grade). I also leave some of the mysteries for my sub teacher and use the as a math review.

Math Mysteries are an independent escape room (or crack the code) type of activity where instead of using locks, students identify suspects with puzzles and word problems. This mystery is perfect for Christmas in December and suits both the Northern and Southern hemispheres Christmas (Summer in the sand and beach or Winter in the snow) Same time of year as Chanukah and Kwanzaa
