The time before the holidays can get a little crazy in the classroom. Students are ready for a break and teachers are too! Keep your class engaged with EIGHT Days of math review! The ACTIVITIES are suitable for 5th grade and 6th grade. They are great for easy and fast sub plans. I use them as an 'end of the day carrot' that my students look forward to. They can't leave for the day without getting a step closer to finding Santa so it helps them to stay focused throughout the day so that we have time for the fun activity at the end of the day. One of the best parts: NO PREP required! This is not only great for distance learning but also great if you have run out of copies for the month and need a digital version fast... or if you just forget to make your copies for the week. (It's happened to me! - too. many things to keep track of) The pages do print beautiful in color and black and white if you have the time, but don't fret if you don't. Just assign it on Google Classroom - directions included. If you haven't taught the topic yet, it is a great mini lesson and if you have taught it, it can act as a review. (There are also some fun logic puzzles sprinkled in.) dividing decimals multiplying decimals dividing whole numbers multiplying whole numbers adding decimals subtracting decimals deducing information measurement conversions practicing with money problem solving graphing predicting and having fun! Each task builds off the next. Students will get clues as to where Santa might be hiding AFTER they correctly solve each math task. And don't worry, there is an ANSWER KEY. This resource lends itself to independent work but students can also work in groups of pairs to solve. Don't forget about the other holidays! There is a themed math activity in my store for each of the following: St. Patrick's Day: Find the Leprechaun Easter: Find the Easter Bunny Cinco de Mayo: Find the Piñata

Financial Literacy: My Party Budget- Decimals and Percentages Application Unlock mathematics’ real-world influence with this practical math project for students in grades 5-8. This tool allows students to sharpen their intermediate math skills, particularly applying percentage calculations and decimal operations to manage a budget consciously - a vital lesson in financial literacy. This versatile resource is ideal for grades 5 to 8 classrooms as well as high school special education environments where budgeting practice complements life skills training. How to Use: Give each student a party budget. You can choose to give everyone the same budget, OR this is a great way to differentiate. Give students with emerging understanding a budget of $100 (which is easy to work with) and give students who need a challenge a budget such as $240, which will result in more complex calculations. This will also stimulate discussions about budgeting in general and the challenge of planning with less money. Students need to partition their hypothetical party budget across varied cost categories like food, decorations and entertainment by employing basic percent in decimal form and understanding addition and multiplication of decimals. For example, they might decide to spend 50% of their budget on food because that is their favourite part of a party. They will calculate 50% of their total budget. This skill application brings relevance to numbers through experiential learning. You can decide if students should complete calculations by hand or if using a calculator is allowed. Also, a complete sample answer key is included that you can show to your students to demonstrate the task. Finally, students complete shopping research and choose items online or in store flyers. This fosters strategic thinking when managing limited resources. You can have a discussion about making tradeoffs (for example, choosing frozen pizza instead of fresh to have extra money for a party activity OR inviting fewer guests to have more money for party favours per person).

These high school financial literacy worksheets will show your students why compound interest is helpful for investors while also letting them practice math skills using percentages and a simple mathematic formula! How to Use: Print 4 pages for each student. Page 1 teaches students how to calculate compound interest step by step. Students need to have a basic understanding of writing percentages in decimal form and multiplying to find the percent of a number. Next, students will be given their initial investment amount & a yearly interest rate. Each student in your class can be given different values so they have to do their own unique calculations, and to allow comparisons to be made. This provides for easy differentiation as well- you can choose what percentage interest rate each student gets based on their ability. Students will calculate the amount of compound interest they earn over ten years. They can then check their calculations using the compound interest formula that is included. Next, they can use the formula to calculate compound interest over longer periods of time. Your class can compare their results- leading to an interesting class discussion (prompt questions are included). Make sure to point out how compound interest is helpful for investing and saving and detrimental for borrowing money. Finally, students reflect on their learning by writing a paragraph after the lesson. Hopefully they will leave class wanting to start a saving account! Grades to Use With: This compound interest lesson with worksheets is designed for high school students in grades 8 through 12. It could be used in math, applied math, financial literacy, or consumer math classes. What's Included: 6 pages in PDF format: Ready to Print and Use!

Math, Addition and Subtraction, Decimals, Fractions, Graphing, Money, Multiplication and Division, Percentages, Research, Resources for Teachers, Homeschool Resources, High School, Teacher Tools, Activities, Worksheets & Printables, Writing Prompts, Word Problems

As a homeschool mom and curriculum creator, this 4-week unit actually began at my kitchen table. My teenage daughter wanted to understand how real businesses manage money behind the scenes, but every resource I found felt overly complicated or painfully dry. So instead of settling for another boring textbook, I created this hands-on business simulation myself. In this unit, your teen will step into the role of a corporate data auditor and learn how to build responsive spreadsheet systems completely from scratch. Along the way, they will connect real-world business skills with practical math and professional software applications in a way that finally makes sense. INCLUDED IN THIS RESOURCE: Step-by-step corporate accounting office scenarios PowerPoint presentations with notes Instructor teaching objectives Complete grading tools TOPICS COVERED: Break-even modeling Payroll regulations and corporate procedures Advanced compensation Internal auditing Rather than assigning repetitive worksheets and busywork, this unit encouraged my daughter to think like capable young professional and problem solve by solving real confidence using spreadsheets in authentic business scenarios. My own daughter learned these exact spreadsheet systems, and watching her develop practical, real-world skills was incredibly rewarding. She was able to articulate what adjustments needed to be made and why she made them. Because of that experience, I wanted to create something that would give other homeschool families the same sense of accomplishment and growth. If you and your homeschooler enjoy this resource, I would truly appreciate you leaving a review. Thank you so much for your support, and I hope this unit becomes a valuable part of your homeschool journey!
