Math Ladder Game Boards for Christmas

I need to make some fraction math ladders. Like, really, really bad. My kiddos keep asking for them. But, in the meantime, (while I have them practice division, multiplication, and place value - again! - because you can never get too much practice with those skills), I've created some Christmas Math Ladder game boards. Enjoy!

Operation Elf - My S-ELF-less Act

It's just a few days before we sit down to our Thanksgiving dinner, but Krista Wallden has issued a challenge - and I loved it! A very generous person herself, she's giving away a set of clip art and challenged store owners to create a giveaway for their store. My kiddos are in the middle of working on fractions right now, so I jumped at the chance to create a math center/whole group activity/classroom decoration. Thus, Equivalent Fraction Garland was born!

My Vision: I'll print these off and get them laminated next week. Students will work in groups during our next center rotation to line up all of the fractions on a giant number line. (Preferably a piece of painter's tape on the floor.) Once they have their solution, they'll copy it onto a worksheet and hang on to it until everyone has had a chance to visit the station.

As a class, we'll discuss our results and come to a single conclusion.

Finally, I'll hang the tags off of the whiteboard tray to decorate our room. I'm thinking that a little bit of gold garland will spruce up the bare background.

Pictures to come later...
