Thanksgiving Feast Project Based Learning – 3rd Grade Math

⭐THANKSGIVING FEAST is a project-based learning task that involves using 3rd grade math standards to plan for a Thanksgiving feast. Your students will be in charge of planning, preparing, and serving a magnificent and delicious Thanksgiving feast. This resource contains a standards-based unit in both printable PDF and Google Slides versions – so it’s the perfect activity to increase engagement and interest in any classroom. Students should determine the ingredients and baking time for dinner rolls, calculate the masses of all the ingredients to make the side dishes, bake and divide five types of pie into equal parts and compare the sizes of the different pieces of pie, use geometry, area, and perimeter to set the tables for the feast and more! Additional “challenge activities” engage students and develop further understanding of the concepts and skills.

 

⭐ This project-based learning task involves using the following CCSS math standards to solve problems related to preparing a Thanksgiving feast.

  • 3.OA.A.1 Interpret products of whole numbers.
  • 3.OA.A.2 Interpret whole-number quotients of whole numbers.
  • 3.OA.A.3 Use multiplication and division within 100 to solve word problems in situations involving equal groups, arrays, & measurement quantities.
  • 3.NBT.A.1 Use place value understanding to round whole numbers to the nearest 10 or 100.
  • 3.NBT.A.2 Fluently add and subtract within 1000.
