Get cozy with three quick warm-ups that mix winter words and snowy math. Part A fixes three sentences, including Jake's miscount of candy canes (4 packs of 5 isn't 25), a plural noun slip with 'deers,' and the tricky plural 'halfs' in a snowball sentence. Part B fills in blanks about 7 elves wrapping 3 gifts each, the word for an opposite (antonym), naming one slice of an 8-slice cake, and inches in a foot.
Part C closes with three true-or-false checks on 6x9, comparing 1/3 and 1/2 of a pie, and measuring weight in pounds or kilograms. Third graders blend grammar, fractions, and times tables in one festive review.
