This is an informational newspaper-style text perfect to teach your students about Presidents Day. and may be used over a few days. The text includes a history of Presidents Day, George Washington, and Abraham Lincoln.
Bingo The questions are in a bingo style format. Students read the informational text about Presidents Day, George Washington, and Abraham Lincoln. Then, they answer questions on the bingo grid. The grid comes in 26 different versions. Having each student use a different version of the answer grid will allow you to reinforce the content of the informational text by playing a game of bingo.
How to Play: The first page is an answer key, which can be used to play the game of bingo. Cut up each square, place in a Ziploc bag or container of your choice and call out questions. Students must answer the question correctly and have 5 in a row. Up, down, or diagonally. Students can use counters or any treats to keep track of the questions called.
Also Included! Reading Comprehension Questions:The questions are also in a traditional multiple choice and short answer format. Not all answers are included from the bingo grid and the questions may be slightly different. You would not need to use BOTH formats – pick one or the other.

Standards Addressed: ✔︎ 4.MD.C.5Recognize angles as geometric shapes that are formed wherever two rays share a common endpoint, and understand concepts of angle measurement: ✔︎ 4.MD.C.5.AAn angle is measured with reference to a circle with its center at the common endpoint of the rays, by considering the fraction of the circular arc between the points where the two rays intersect the circle. An angle that turns through 1/360 of a circle is called a "one-degree angle," and can be used to measure angles. ✔︎ 4.MD.C.5.BAn angle that turns through n one-degree angles is said to have an angle measure of n degrees. ✔︎ 4.MD.C.6Measure angles in whole-number degrees using a protractor. Sketch angles of specified measure. ✔︎ 4.MD.C.7Recognize angle measure as additive. When an angle is decomposed into non-overlapping parts, the angle measure of the whole is the sum of the angle measures of the parts. Solve addition and subtraction problems to find unknown angles on a diagram in real world and mathematical problems, e.g., by using an equation with a symbol for the unknown angle measure.

Answer Key
Standards Addressed: ✔︎ 4.NF.B.4 Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication to multiply a fraction by a whole number. ✔︎ 4.NF.B.4.A Understand a fraction a/b as a multiple of 1/b. For example, use a visual fraction model to represent 5/4 as the product 5 × (1/4), recording the conclusion by the equation 5/4 = 5 × (1/4). ✔︎ 4.NF.B.4.B Understand a multiple of a/b as a multiple of 1/b, and use this understanding to multiply a fraction by a whole number. For example, use a visual fraction model to express 3 × (2/5) as 6 × (1/5), recognizing this product as 6/5. (In general, n × (a/b) = (n × a)/b.) ✔︎ 4.NF.B.4.C Solve word problems involving multiplication of a fraction by a whole number, e.g., by using visual fraction models and equations to represent the problem. For example, if each person at a party will eat 3/8 of a pound of roast beef, and there will be 5 people at the party, how many pounds of roast beef will be needed? Between what two whole numbers does your answer lie?

This resource offers fraction and decimal activities for you to use on or around St. Patrick's Day. You will need the cereal Lucky Charms for these activities. This resource is appropriate for grades 3-5, but aligns to the 4th Grade Common Core Standards.
MACC.4.NF.A.1 Explain why a fraction a/b is equivalent to a fraction (n × a)/(n × b) by using visual fraction models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate equivalent fractions
MACC.4.NF.3.6 Use decimal notation for fractions with denominators 10 or 100.
In the first activity, Find Your Pot of Gold!, students will find the fractional amounts of a set by using tally marks and creating a table.
In the second activity, My Fraction, My Decimal, students will use 10 pieces of Lucky Charms cereal (or 100 depending on the version you would like to use) to demonstrate the relationship from fractions to decimals. Then, plot the decimals and fractions on a number line. This is a wonderful activity to use when introducing decimal/fraction relationships.

Falalala Fractions! Nothing makes fractions more fun than all things Christmas! This resource will help keep math fun and festive around the holidays while still meeting the Common Core standards.
This set has been updated as of 12/6/2015 to include printable practice pages (half sheets), updated fonts and clip art, and I Can statements added to each Journal Problem and Practice Page.
About this product: This resource contains practice problems and resources to support the following Math Common Core Standards for Fractions:
MACC.4.NF.1.1 Explain why a fraction a/b is equivalent to a fraction (n x a)/( n x b) by using visual fraction models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate equivalent fractions.
MACC.4.NF.1.2 Compare two fractions with different numerators and different denominators, e.g., by creating common denominators or numerators, or by comparing to a benchmark fraction such as ½. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with symbols >, <, or =, and justify the conclusions, e.g. by using a visual fraction model.
This set includes Christmas-themed Journal Problems and Half Sheet Practice Pages to teach generating equivalent fractions, finding a common denominator, simplest form, and comparing & ordering fractions. The problems are thematic around the things that make us happiest around Christmas: wrapping presents, elves, Santa, his reindeer, and baking!
What this set includes:
*11 Journal Problems (4 on a page)- I used these problems in my 4th grade classroom to glue into their Math Journals. I used some of the problems to teach and some for students to work with a partner depending on the lesson. You could also laminate these and use in small groups or as part of your Math Center for partnership work.
*6 Practice Pages Half Sheet (2 on a page)- These half pages can also be glued into Math Journals or used as a formative assessments. These practice pages are printed two on a page to help save paper as well as minimize grading. You can quickly see whether students have mastered the concept with only a few skill-focused problems on a page. This helps me to see which students have mastered each concept of equivalent fractions and comparisons.
*Falalala Fractions Printable Page- (2 pages to print front and back) This page contains primarily the same problems from the Journal problems. This gives you the option to use the problems like a worksheet instead of a Journal problem.

Check HERE for all Good Morning, Sunshine! Morning Work
This resource is a unique way to get your students warmed up in the morning. The math is aligned to 4th grade Common Core Standards and intended to be a review.
This set contains 5 weeks of thematic Summer Math Morning work for the month of June. The morning work is focused on Math with a sprinkle of Science, a pinch of grammar, and a dash of Daily/Weekly Updates to keep your students engaged and open doors for conversations.
Each week follows the same routine. The focus for each day was created based on fundamental needs I noticed in my classroom of 4th graders: Multiplication & Division, Number Sense, & Fractions (including Fractions & Decimals) While these are not the only areas addressed, they are the main focus. Each week follows the same routine and structure.
Multiplication Monday- Problems are centered around Multiplication.
Base Ten Tuesday- All about the Base of our Number System. These problems are centered around our number system and place value.
Wordless Wednesday- No Word Problems! Students have 3 problems without words.
Throwback Thursday- Review Day! Other days may offer a review problem, but Thursdays have problems that may come from 3rd grade or the beginning of the year. I also added problems from other standards such as Measurement, Data, and Geometry. There is also a short paragraph in which students Box the Verbs, Circle the adjectives, and Underline the nouns. There may also be a short sentence or paragraph in which students edit the sentence or answer a question after reading a short paragraph related to Social Studies or Science.
Fraction Fun Friday- Nothing says Fun Friday like Fractions! There is always a need to review fractions. By keeping it short, sweet and including a fun personal question, this may help build your students’ confidence in fractions while also keeping it fresh.
Each week follows the same routine. The focus for each day was created based on fundamental needs I noticed in my classroom of 4th graders: Multiplication & Division, Number Sense, & Fractions (including Fractions & Decimals) While these are not the only areas addressed, they are the main focus. Each week follows the same routine and structure.
I created this resource in my 4th grade classroom because I saw a need to continuously review these key areas. By following this same structure each week, students know what to expect while they are also building their confidence in these essential math areas. I have also found several other benefits from this morning work routine:
*Routine!-My students knew exactly what to do when they come in the classroom. Also, if I needed a few extra minutes due to meetings or other housekeeping duties, I knew my students were spending that time working on essential math skills, not just “busy work.” The morning work is meant to be short and sweet, skill practice, plus engaging.
*Short and Sweet- There are only a few problems so it shouldn’t take longer than 10 minutes. This will also let you know if students are still having difficulty with a certain skill.
*Fewer Copies- Only one sheet of paper for the whole week! (Copy front and back)
*A Weekly Grade-My students know this and do not want to do the work for homework or have a poor grade. This helped get them started right away in the morning. I also go over the problems each morning and allowed students to fix their work before turning it in. In my opinion, this is beneficial because it keeps the students engaged as we go over it, ESPECIALLY if they had difficulty with it. This was also beneficial for students because if they paid attention and “added on to their thinking,” they can earn a good grade that will be added weekly. For students that already struggle, this is confidence building and motivating.

This product is a checklist meant for intermediate writers in a Narrative Unit. This form allows students a checklist for what is expected in a quality narrative piece of writing. It is meant to be used at the end of a unit before final publication. I have used this in my 3rd grade classroom and was extremely helpful in identifying expectations for my students, as well as promoting partnership conversations based on their writing. This also assisted in assessing their final piece of writing.

About this Resource
This resource is a unique way to get your students warmed up in the morning. The math is aligned to 3rd and 4th grade Common Core Standards and a great way to review critical Math standards throughout the year.
Each month contains 4-5 (except for August) weeks of Math morning work, which will have a theme around the season, national holidays, or events associated with that particular month. The morning work is focused on Math with a sprinkle of Science, a pinch of grammar, and a dash of Daily/Weekly Updates to keep your students engaged and open doors for conversations. At the beginning of the year, the math will be mostly 2nd and 3rd grade review and increase in difficulty throughout the year. The morning work is intended to be a review to keep students engaged, build confidence, and ensure they can complete with independence.
Each week follows the same routine. The focus for each day was created based on fundamental needs I noticed in my own classroom:
Multiplication & Division
Number Sense
Fractions (including Fractions & Decimals).
While these are not the only areas addressed, they are the main focus. Each week follows the same routine and structure:
Multiplication Monday-Multiplication & Division problems, including problems that scaffold these concepts
Base Ten Tuesday-All about the Base of our Number System. These problems are centered around our number system and place value.
Wordless Wednesday-No Word Problems! Students have 3 problems without words.
Throwback Thursday-Review Day! Other days may offer a review problem, but Thursdays have problems that may come from 2nd grade or the beginning of the year. Thursdays also include problems from other standards such as Measurement, Data, and Geometry.
Fraction Fun Friday-Nothing says Fun Friday like Fractions! There is always a need to review fractions. By keeping it short, sweet and including a fun personal question, this may help build your students’ confidence in fractions while also keeping it fresh.
By following this same structure each week, students know what to expect while they are also building their confidence in these essential math areas. There are several other benefits from this morning work routine:
Routine!-Students know exactly what to do when they come in the classroom. Also, we ALWAYS need a few extra minutes due to meetings or other housekeeping duties. Students spend their mornings working on essential math skills and not just “busy work.”
Short & Sweet-There are only a few problems so the morning work takes about 10 minutes. This also lets you know if students are struggling with a certain skill.
Fewer Copies-You only need one sheet of paper for the whole week (front and back).
A Weekly Grade-Establishing this as a weekly grade holds students accountable for their morning work. They get started right away in the morning. You might also go over the problems each morning and allow students to fix their work before turning it in. This is also beneficial because it keeps the students engaged as you go over it, ESPECIALLY if they had difficulty with it. This was also beneficial for students because if the paid attention and “added on to their thinking,” they can earn a good grade that will be added weekly. For students that already struggle, this builds confidence and motivation.

This is an informational newspaper-style text perfect to teach your
students about history of St. Patrick’s Day. It may be used over a few days.
BINGO
The questions are in a bingo style format. Students read the informational text about St. Patrick’s Day. Then, they answer questions on the bingo grid. The grid comes in 26 different versions. Having each student use a different version of the answer grid will allow you to reinforce the content of the informational text by playing a game of
bingo.
HOW TO PLAY:
The first page is an answer key, which can be used to play the game of bingo. Cut up each square, place in a Ziploc bag or container of your choice and call out questions. Students must answer the question correctly and have 5 in a row. Up, down, or diagonally. Students can use counters or any treats (like Lucky Charms) to keep track of the questions called.
