Give your 4th graders a ready-to-go interactive math notebook that actually teaches them how to use it.

This printable set walks students step-by-step through setting up a math notebook, building a whole number–fraction–mixed number wheel, practicing conversions, and reflecting on their learning. You’ll also get student and teacher rubrics, directions pages, and fun half-page math coloring sheets for early finishers.

Designed for 4th grade math and aligned to Texas TEKS for fractions and mixed numbers, this resource is perfect for math workshop, guided math, intervention, or whole-group interactive notebook lessons.
