    This is an excellent resource! It was great to use in the classroom!

    This was perfect to use during center rotations the week before Thanksgiving Break. It was perfect for their ability levels, yet it kept them engaged the entire time!

  3. Celiann Donis –

    Love it!! reinforce different skills at once. great resource.

  4. Chloe G. –

    It’s a great resource and has a lot of great ideas but I find some of it to be still a little too challenging for 3rd grade and visually is overwhelming and busy.

  5. Krista Ricks –

    Love, love, love this packet. So many different skills and all very engaging and real life.

  6. Ms Tammys Classroom –

    Awesome resource! My students really enjoyed using this.

    My students loved this as a challenge. I pull small HA groups and they were very engaged as they did something different than their normal math curriculum.

  8. Nora Ray –

    This is GREAT! Thank you for this AWESOME resource!

  9. Catherine Fenton –

    The students absolutely “ate” this project up. They enjoyed the challenge of creating a Thanksgiving meal and gave them the necessary challenge of staying within a budget while being creative in their planning.

  10. Katherine M. –

    This was a great resource to use in math rotations with my high flyers. They loved the extra challenge and learning new concepts.

  11. Ann H. –

    This is a great resource–very comprehensive and full of problem solving skills for 3rd grade. We hadn’t covered several items in the resource at Thanksgiving time so that part was a little challenging. I learned to start it earlier in the month next time 🙂

  12. Global Connections –

    This is great for enrichment on standards for high achieving students.
