A link to an instructional video demonstrating how to use the cards effectively (see below) Self-checking cards to give immediate feedback and promote independent learning. Fun and festive Christmas visuals like stockings, ornaments, and candy canes to keep students motivated. This no-prep, digital resource is ideal for math centers, independent practice, or small group instruction. Celebrate the season while boosting math success!
