Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday to relax and eat delicious food with loved ones. Around here, it's the first time during the school year that we get multiple days off, so we're extra thankful for the extra downtime. In this post, I want to share with you some fun Thanksgiving-themed math activities that will keep students motivated while practicing their skills, perfect for both classroom and home learning leading up to the Thanksgiving break.

| Thanksgiving puzzles digital math escape room |
First up is a new Thanksgiving puzzles digital math escape room, where students solve for the values of Thanksgiving pictures. The digital version is no-prep in Google Forms, and is answer-validated so that it collects student work for you. The activity also comes in PDF printable form.
Students solve for each picture, then type their 4-letter code to move to the next puzzle. They can only move to the next puzzle if their code is correct. I added a graphic organizer to the activity to help students keep track of each picture's value as they find it.

Lastly is a set of domain and range Thanksgiving math pennants. Each pennant is in the shape of a cornucopia and has either a continuous or discrete graph, along with spaces for domain, range, and whether the graph is a function or not. Students identify the characteristics of their graphs, then color their cornucopias to add their own creativity.
