Christmas Math Worksheets: Multiplication & Division No Prep for Grades 3–5

Description

These Christmas worksheets give 3rd, 4th and 5th grade no-prep multiplication and division practice in a December theme. Twelve activities each come in two levels — Level 1 fits grades 3 and 4, and Level 2 fits grades 4 and 5 — so a mixed class can work on the same topic at different depths, and a teacher can hand out one set of pages to a whole class without sorting children into visible groups.

The twelve activities cover the multiplication and division work of the upper elementary years. Children color by code to solve a mystery picture, divide ornaments, find missing factors, work out a Christmas magic number, solve logic riddles, find missing numbers, sort numbers and number sentences, solve holiday word problems, use a Christmas decimal grid, work multiplication and division equations, round and estimate, and solve area and perimeter puzzles.

Each activity is a single page at each level, so the set runs as 24 student pages that a teacher can use in any order. A page works as a center, as homework, as an early-finisher page, or as a substitute plan that needs no explanation. The pages are black and white, so they print cleanly on any classroom printer, and answer keys are included.

Because the two levels share the same activities, the set is built for mixed-ability classes. A child working on multiplication facts and a child working on division with larger numbers both do the same ornament division page, at the level that fits, and both finish with something to show for the lesson.

Why it works

Two levels of the same activity let a whole class do the same work at the depth that fits each child, without anyone knowing who has the easier page. Multiplication and division in a Christmas theme get practiced because the pages are fun to finish, not because a teacher insisted.
