This Tic-Tac-Toe Choice Board allows students to choose which activities they would like to complete while or after reading THE WISH GIVER novel. Activities include reading, writing, math, art, and history choices. The activities are designed to both foster students' creativity and create interest. In addition, there is a bonus activity where students can choose to research the Salem Witch Trials. Students choose either three or six activities to complete per the teacher's discretion, but y

This file contains 11 quizzes/practice sheets that cover Common Core multiplication and division concepts for fourth grade. In addition there is also a practice unit test with 14 questions, and a unit test with 27 questions. The quizzes, practice sheets, and tests cover the following multiplication and division concepts: -multiplicative comparisons -multiplication using the area model -multiplication using partial products -multiplication using the distributive property -multiplication using e

This file contains 19 pages, and each page contains four cut-apart cards. There are a total of 68 questions, covering every fourth grade Common Core math concept. Cards are numbered and the Common Core standard is listed on each. There is also a student answer sheet included if you choose to use it. (I would recommend printing the cards on card stock and laminating them so you can reuse the activity from year to year.) Some standards have only one question, but there are multiple questions

This 20-question test measures proficiency on linear measurement (to the inch, half inch, and quarter inch) and reading and interpreting line plot data. It's suitable as a unit test, review, test prep, or remediation. -Created by Mac Daniel

Using models, students can see the relationship between mixed numbers and improper fractions. I generally provide either the mixed number or improper fraction, and then have the student shade the models and provide the corresponding mixed number or improper fraction. This file also contains a set of concentration cards. Students make matches by pairing the improper fraction with its mixed number. 18 cards are included. I've also included a cut-and-paste activity where students place eleven im

This 202 page file contains high-quality photos of all the math notes I gave my students during the school year. It shows how I taught each math concept. My students were successful, scoring in the top 15% of all fourth-grade math students in the state of North Carolina. I attribute much of this success to note-taking, which is a powerful method of teaching as the student must engage his/her senses of sight, hearing, and touch. The notes are organized so that all students have the same in

This file contains the following: -a geometry PowerPoint (with some extra topics not covered in Common Core, which you can skip at your discretion -a geometry practice test (to help students review what's covered in the Common Core geometry unit) -TWO geometry tests you can use at your discretion (pre-test/post-test, practice, homework, re-teaching, or even a safety net for those students who don't perform well on the first test you give) There IS an answer key for the main geometry test; howev

This 25-question test addresses all of the following Common Core concepts: -using the four operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division) to solve multi-step problems -using combinations of the four operations to solve problems -matching algebraic expressions with the problem it could solve -matching problems with the algebraic problem that could solve it -solving algebraic expressions -using the order of operations to solve problems This test could be used as an assessment or for

This file contains 3 items: a 50-question measurement review quiz, a 30-question unit test, and a 30-question practice test. The 30-question test test covers fourth-grade Common Core measurement conversions (pounds, ounces, liters, milliliters, hours, minutes, meters, centimeters, feet, inches, yards, kilograms, and grams) and solving word problems involving length, distance, time, capacity, mass, and money. It also contains a 30-question practice test that could be used for review, homework

Each week features a different standard with five questions designed to encourage deep thinking about Common Core objectives in the following areas of mathematics: -graphing & line plots -fractions -perimeter -geometry -area -addition & subtraction -place value -multiplication & division -time & elapsed time -mass & volume -linear measurement -mathematical equations These problems are very versatile and lend themselves to morning work, homework, math stations, partner work, group work, or even
