Factor Christmas Trees





Today for our "Winter Wonderland Hands-On Wednesday", we completed some hands-on tasks, one of which was creating factor trees. We used Christmas trees to create our factor trees. Students were given a product, typed on a star, and they had to find all of the prime factors of that number by creating the factor tree. We are going to use the trees for another task later to find the greatest common factors of two given products.
