Celebrate the Christmas season with this engaging communal story-telling activity!

"Christmas Collaborative Story Time" is a communal story-telling activity in which students practice using Freytag's Pyramid plot structure in their own narrative writing. In this activity, each student begins a story inspired by a unique Christmas picture or photograph. They are prompted to write the exposition of the tale by introducing the setting and main characters. After the allotted amount of time, the story is then passed to another student who is prompted to write the inciting incident or conflict and begin to detail the rising action. The paper is passed from student to student twice more until the story is resolved. When the stories are finished, the worksheet is returned to the original student who can then make edits and is responsible for producing a final draft.

With this intrinsically engaging activity, each student has the chance to tap into their creativity while applying knowledge of the 7 steps of Freytag's Pyramid. It is a great activity to introduce or reinforce the plot diagram and is perfect for getting students in the Christmas spirit. Since it runs itself, the lesson is also great for substitute plans or on those days when you need a quick plan to get you through the day. I trust you will find that your students will ask for this activity again and again!

• Pixel Art 2 - Level Two (grey hat)
• Pixel Art 3 - Level Three (orange goggles)

There are 19 total problems in EACH pixel art, totaling 57 total problems.

How it works:

• Students will solve a series of order of operation problems, each corresponding to a color or section of a pixelated image.
• As they evaluate the expressions correctly, they "fill in" the picture, pixel by pixel, revealing a fun design at the end.
• The more problems they solve, the clearer the image becomes, providing instant feedback and a sense of accomplishment!

Why it's great for the classroom:

• Engaging & Interactive: Keeps students focused while practicing essential math skills.
• Instant Feedback: Students can immediately see the results of their work, motivating them to keep solving problems.
• Differentiation: Different levels of difficulty make it ideal for any classroom setting!

This Math Pixel Art Activity is a fantastic way to combine creativity with learning, making algebra fun and exciting for students of all ages!
