This winter and Christmas math activity lets students shop for parts to decorate their own gingerbread house! Students will practice counting coins, solving word problems, addition and subtraction, and working within a budget - AND they'll barely know they're doing all of that math because this is such an engaging activity! This includes a printable and digital version in Google Slides, perfect for Christmas distance learning!
