This is one of many common core math center packets I will have available in my TpT store. Each CC standard will have at least two math centers you can use in your classroom. The price of the standard packet will vary depending on the number of math centers in each packet. Once all the standards for a strand, like operations & algebraic thinking, have been created, I will bundle them all into one big file. Or, you can still purchase them individually. Please follow me on TpT for updates when new math centers are posted. These are specifically for 4th grade but could be used in 3rd or 5th grade math classrooms for enrichment or review. One of the great features of the common core math centers is they are all blackline masters. No need to purchase or use color ink. Just copy onto colored paper, laminate, and you are ready to go! All directions are on the title page for your center.

This set includes four math centers to use with the MCC4.OA.3 standard. This standard's focus is solving word problems using the four operations while interpreting remainders, unknown variables, and "assessing the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies including rounding." (www.georgiastandards.org)

4 math centers that focus on MCC4.OA.3

o Story Board Math: {using sequential words on a story board format to create and solve word problems with a variety of operations}

o What Should My Answer Be?: {solving word problems with a variety of operations and supporting your answer with reasoning}

o What's Missing: {creating and solving equations that contain an unknown variable}

o Check Your Stuff: {using estimation to solve a variety of operations, finding the actual answer, and reasoning whether the estimate is logical}

“I can solve multistep word problems using the four operations.”
