Mystery Pictures = The Perfect Thanksgiving Math Activity

Thanksgiving is coming up, and what better way to celebrate is by integrating a bit of turkey day fun into every subject? We’ve put together a delightful Thanksgiving mystery picture worksheet filled with problems to help fourth and fifth-graders practice dividing three and four-digit numbers by single digits. These problems work with whole numbers only and do not require remainders.

Students will use marker boards or scratch paper to solve the problems and color the grid according to a color key. If they were correct, the mystery picture will appear!

An answer sheet is included with your download for students to self-check their answers.
