Recent feedback on this resource:
"I previously purchased the agree/disagree for operations and alegraic thinking and my students' were very engaged with that so I purchased the 12 Days of Christmas Math Challenge in December before winter break. They loved how the problems were actually related to the 12 day of Christmas, and they got a kick out of fixing the 'mistakes' in the problems. Great spiral review to use around the holidays!"
"Love how this is more party themed than "Christmas" to make it appropriate for all children"
"My kids loved this! Perfect for discussions and higher-level thinking!"
"Kept them engaged until the end. Thank you ;-)"
