I made this sheet as an assessment for multiplying and dividing fractions. It contains 15 problems and challenges students to multiply and divided fractions, mixed numbers, and whole numbers in an assortment of combinations. This sheet would serve as a good pre-test, a review sheet, or a quiz. An answer key is included.

This quiz assesses students' ability to add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers. This goes along with CCSS 4.NBT.B.4, under using "place value understanding and properties of operations to perform multi-digit arithmetic." The quiz consists of 11 questions and includes a mix of addition and subtraction problems, including 2 word problems.

I made this sheet as a way to hold my math students accountable for their learning behaviors. It's a report card for them to fill out about their effort and behaviors. The report requires students to rate themselves on 11 math learning behaviors. There's also a spot for students to write a comment about their recent performance. This is a nice activity to accompany teacher report cards at the end of each marking period and/or to be used as a progress report mid-quarter. Check my other student r

I made this sheet as a review for a fractions quiz, but it could just as easily serve as the quiz itself. The sheet covers identifying fractions, simplifying fractions, finding equivalent fractions, converting between mixed numbers and improper fractions, and comparing fractions.

I made this activity to serve as a fun way for students to apply what they learned in the probability unit. Students rotate through 6 hands-on stations where they calculate mathematical probabilities, complete experiments, and then calculate the resulting experimental probabilities. The stations use basic materials that should be found within your classroom or school, like dice, coins, spinners, etc. The activity requires a knowledge of mathematical probability and experimental probability fo

I made this activity as a way for my students to discover pi, or the relationship between the diameter of a circle and the circumference. In the activity, students are asked to measure various circular items using a string to find their circumference. Students compare that to the circle's diameter to discover that whatever the size of the circle, the circumference is always 3.14 times larger than the diameter. I use different circular items of all sizes found in my classroom: trash cans, cu

I made this activity to use as a problem-solving activity after I've taught the basic concepts within our fractions unit. In this activity, students are given 10 fraction cards and a strip of paper, and they are asked to correctly place the cards on the strip of paper to form a fraction number line. Students must use their knowledge of what is a fraction, comparing fractions, simplifying fractions, and equivalent fractions to correctly place each fraction. This file contains teacher direction

This quiz can be used to assess students' ability to add and subtract fractions, including mixed numbers. There are problems with like and unlike denominators, and there are problems with mixed numbers and whole numbers. An answer key is included.

I made this activity to use as a problem-solving activity after I've taught the basic concepts within our decimals unit. In this activity, students are given 10 decimal cards and a strip of paper, and they are asked to correctly place the cards on the strip of paper to form a decimal number line. Students must use their knowledge of what is a decimal, comparing decimals, and equivalent decimals to correctly place each decimal. This file contains teacher directions, the student decimal cards, an

I made this sheet to assess students' understanding of place value. The different math concepts measured by this quiz include base-ten theory (10 times greater & less, etc.), place value, value, comparing numbers, and reading and writing numbers in word form, expanded form, and standard form. There are 18 questions on the quiz, and I score it out of 20 points.

I made this game to help students practice comparing fractions to see which one is greater or if they are equivalent. The game is played just like the card game war, but it uses a deck of fraction cards instead. This file includes teacher directions, student directions, and 2 sets of fractions cards that the teacher will need to prepare. I've used this activity for many years with my 5th graders, and they always enjoy playing it.

This math assessment can be used as a pre and post test for fourth grade math. It can also be used to help determine appropriate math placements at the beginning oo the school year. The assessment has at least one problem for each standard in grade 4. There are 50 questions in all, which helps facilitate determining a student's overall percent correct. This document will serve as a nice addition to any existing assessments you use, as it will help provide another piece of data regarding st

I made this sheet to help reinforce with my students the idea that "in a multi-digit whole number, a digit in one place represents ten times what it represents in the place to its right."* The worksheet has students calculating 10 times more or 10 times less than a number for several numbers. Students are then asked to analyze their responses and record what they notice. I allowed my students to use a calculator, if they needed to, to complete the calculations because my focus was on their ob

I made this problem-solving activity for my math students to solve after they learned about compound events. Students need to understand the difference between dependent and independent compound events to solve this problem. The problem is embedded in a realistic situation, so students need to determine what information is important and relevant before solving the problem. The multiplication of fractions required for this dependent event might seem lofty at first, but if students simplify fac

This quiz assesses students' basic understanding of polygons. The focus is on identifying and classifying polygons, understanding the characteristics of certain polygons (i.e., the interior angles of triangles sum to 180 degrees), and even drawing polygons. Most of the questions center around triangles and quadrilaterals. The quiz is 2 pages and has 15 questions. It would also serve as a good polygon review sheet.

I made this fractions quiz for a fifth grade above-grade-level math class. This is the assessment I use to asses students' basic understandings of fractions concepts, including identifying, simplifying, equivalent, mixed numbers, improper fractions, comparing, and ordering. This sheet could also serve as a review HW or classwork prior to a test.

I made this product as a fun way for my students to practice comparing fractions. It's based off the idea of the March Madness basketball tournament, where teams compete to see which one is the greatest. However, in this activity fractions compete against each other to find out which fraction is the greatest. I have students fill out their initial bracket prior to teaching them about comparing fractions, so much like with college basketball there are lots of opportunities for them to incorrec
