Christmaths Advent 2021

December 1, 2021

I really want to get back to blogging more regularly, so I decided a good ol’ blog challenge is probably in order. I was planning to upload a few Christmas activities during December, so I’m challenging myself to do a post a day until December 24th, either sharing one of my own resources or discussing a fab Christmaths resource I’ve found elsewhere.

1. Fermat's Christmas Theorem

Short investigation using primes, multiples and squares.

2. Four pointed stars

Simple problem with plenty of depth to explore.

3. Christmas Code Joke 1

Crack the code using order of operations to reveal the answer to a corny Christmas joke.

4. Christmas Code Joke 2

Crack the code using equivalent fractions to reveal the answer to a corny Christmas joke.

5. Mince Pies Proportion

Write the recipe cards for different amounts of mince pies using proportional reasoning.

6. Gift Boxes 1

Work out the cost of each present.

7. Gift Boxes 2

Work out the cost of each present – simultaneous equations.

8. The Twelve Days of Christmas

Work out the total number of presents in the popular Christmas song.

9. The True Cost of Christmas

Use the PNC Christmas price index to calculate the cost of the gifts in the Christmas carol.
