Give your classroom a festive look this December. The two advent calendars are designed to be displayed around the classroom in the run up to the Christmas holiday, or as set pieces of work each day. Students can search the classroom walls for the question of the day and answer the question on their sheet. Ideal as a starter or a good conclusion to the lesson. Questions range from Algebra, number work, fractions, decimals, ratio and much more. There are two calendars which can be mixed and matched as you require. Excellent resource to include a little bit of festive fun and revision.

This set of exercises can either be used as a starter during the last two weeks of term or all together as a lesson piece. Designed with a Christmas feel, the task involves students either creating mathematical equations or using the process of elimination to find the numerical values attached to each of the Christmas pictures presented. The material is useful for either KS2 or KS3 students, however GCSE foundation students would also have fun with this material.
