This Christmas math craft activity will have your students practicing adding and subtracting fractions and creating an adorable gingerbread house craft at the same time, perfect for hallway display or to send home as a Christmas treat.
Watch your students enjoy the magic of Christmas while they choose their answer to class-building questions such as "Do you prefer your hot chocolate with or without marshmallows?" and then solve a adding and subtracting fractions problem. The answer to the adding and subtracting fractions problem will provide students with directions for adding certain types and numbers of decorations to their gingerbread house math craft.
