Description
This set of 20 engaging task cards is designed to help students master key 4th grade math skills aligned to KY.4.NBT.4 and KY.4.NBT.5. Students will practice fluently adding and subtracting multi-digit whole numbers, as well as multiplying using strategies based on place value and the properties of operations. Each word problem encourages students to think critically and apply efficient algorithms while making connections to models such as area models, rectangular arrays, and expanded form.
These task cards are perfect for math centers, small group instruction, independent practice, or test review. An answer sheet is included for students to record their work, along with a complete answer key for quick and easy grading. This resource supports differentiated instruction by allowing students to solve problems using a variety of strategies while building confidence and accuracy with multi-digit operations.
Standards:
KY.4.NBT.4 Fluently add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers using an algorithm.
MP.2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
MP.8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
Students make connections from previous work with addition and subtraction, using models/representations to develop an efficient algorithm to add and subtract multi-digit numbers. These are types of algorithms/strategies one could possibly use (but not limited to) to solve adding and subtracting multi-digit whole numbers.
KY.4.NBT.5 Multiply whole numbers
● Up to four digit number by a one-digit number
● Two-digit number by two-digit number Multiply using strategies based on place value and the properties of operations. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays and/or area models.
MP.3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
MP.4. Model with mathematics.
MP.8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
Students use a variety of models (rectangular arrays and area models) and strategies to represent multi-digit factors times a one-digit factor and a two-digit number by a two-digit number. Students also connect their reasoning to a written equation.
