In grade one, we have been working on a Christmas game, where the kids solve riddles and math clues to try and save the North Pole from some bad elves that have invaded! The link above is to the folder with all the resources if you wanted to check it out. When they solve a clue, we tweet "santa" (I made an account @mr_clausHOHO), and Santa Tweets us back our next clue the following day. We tracked our progress on a big paper map of the north pole, but I also made a digital copy.
Here is an example of our Tweets from Santa
This is an example of one of the math clues the kids had to solve
This project was just a fun way to spend December, while still working on math problems. The Twitter aspect made the kids really buy in!
