Canadian Thanksgiving

Since Thanksgiving in Canada is this weekend, we doubled the number of worksheets available on our Thanksgiving Math Worksheets page today! Of course, those of you in the U.S. will benefit a little later in November. Perhaps we'll get around to making even more choices by then. Please feel free to send us a suggestion if there is something you'll be working on in November.

New Thanksgiving Math Worksheets

1. We added four versions of a sorting/ordering worksheet based on the newest version on the number sense page. For this one, though, we added some turkeys and pumpkins and some units of measure. So, instead of just sorting random numbers, students now sort the masses of turkeys or pumpkins in lbs or kgs (your choice).

2. There are five new picture patterning worksheets. The most basic one is for sorting shapes. We chose four shapes that we thought would represent Thanksgiving and put them all on the same page. There are also picture patterns with two attributes in various combinations: shape/size, shape/rotation, and size/rotation. For an extra challenge, try the three attribute version with shape/size/rotation all mixed together. Note that it is possible that there is more than one answer to each pattern, so a suggested answer is given on the answer keys.

3. The third and final type of worksheet we added is a ratio worksheet in two versions. The first is comparing only part to part ratios which is suitable for younger children. The second type also includes part to whole ratios for more advanced children.

The images on these worksheets are all from http://openclipart.org/ which is a great place to get quality images for own projects.

For all those in Canada who are celebrating Thanksgiving this weekend, enjoy your day off, family, friends, and good times and thanks for visiting Math-Drills.com for all your math worksheet needs.
