4th Grade Magic

Students are to compare decimals using number lines.

Students should use this as a quiz, quiz, trade Kagan structured activity. The pages should be printed front to back with page 1 being printed on the back of page 5, 2 on the back of page 6, etc. Students should walk around the room with their card and quiz a partner. Their partner will then quiz them. Once finished, they trade cards and find a new partner. You could also use this as a scoot activity, etc.

Students should estimate what decimal is shown on the number line based on the dot. You can modify this for students by adding benchmark decimals if needed. Answer key is provided.

Students in partners work through this mystery challenge to solve the riddle. Students answer the questions correctly to earn clues. The clues should be given in numerical order as they solve problems correctly. Once they have all the clues, they can guess what the item is to win. Answer key provided.

Use Rally Coach to help your students practice missing digits within adding multi-digit whole numbers.

This sheet can be used as homework, an assessment, or classwork. Students are required to convert fractions to mixed numbers and improper fractions. There is also a section for spiral review which has students write numbers in word, standard, and expanded form.

This game of Bump! uses decimals on a number line. Students roll two die and add them together. Based on their sum, they find the number line to match. If correct, the student places a chip on that number. Partner two then takes a turn. If they roll the same number, they may Bump! the other player off. If a player rolls their own number twice, they may put two chips on that number. Once two chips are placed, they cannot be bumped off. The player with the most chips when all numbers are covered w

Player 1 rolls two dice and creates a fraction using the two numbers rolled. Player two rolls the dice and creates their own fraction. Both player figure out if Player 1’s fraction is greater than, less than, or equal to Player 2’s fraction. If you get it right, you get a point!

These fraction word problems were used in my classroom as a scavenger hunt. The problems were cut apart and taped/hidden around the classroom. Students then worked in pairs to find the problems and solve them. They earned 3 points for a correct 1st response, 2 for a 2nd correct response, and 1 point for working with me to solve the problem.

Students are required to read a number line and write the decimal or fraction to complete the chart. In each row, students must fill in the missing pieces to complete the chart. Students must know how to read a number line with decimals, convert a decimal to a fraction, and convert a fraction to a decimal.

Students roll dice to create a fraction and a factor to multiply the fraction by. Students in a partners can check one another's work to confirm answers.

These fraction word problem task cards can be used in a scoot, as a quick check/assessment, or as a center. They are holiday themed, but the clipart can easily be removed for a general use.

Multiplicative comparison word problems that can be used as task cards, assessment, centers, small group, scoot, etc. Answer key is provided.

Comparing decimals practice sheet with number lines, models, and charts for multiple select answers.

Students will practice division with this Bump! game.

This activity consists of three tasks requiring students to make sense of the area model for multiplication. Students will be solving for the area of rooms and a house in order to figure out the square footage of carpet needed. Students begin by solving for the area of four pre-cut out rooms and then calculating the area of the entire house (all four rooms). Students then proceed to solving for the area of a house without pre-cut rooms and finally to solving by creating their own area model. Thi

Students will be practicing adding two-digit and one-digit numbers (with and without regrouping) and adding and subtracting groups of 10. Students will work in small groups to solve each question. Upon getting a correct answer, they will receive a clue. As they solve questions and earn clues, they will try to figure out what's in the mystery box. At the end, you can have students guess what's in the box and then show them. This example has clues for Candy Canes, but you can change the clues to m

Students will sort the cards together to match the decimal to the fractional part. You can use these in centers, small group, or individually to assess.

A short set of division task cards for students to use during centers, collaborative groups, or a quick check.

Students are to draw models to compare decimals. This homework also includes spiral standards with the basic operations.
