4th Grade Resources

This resource is a unique way to get your students warmed up in the morning. The math is aligned to 5th Grade Common Core Standards and meant to be a review. If you teach 6th grade, this might also work for you depending on your students’ needs.

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 4th Grade review and increase in difficulty as the year goes on. However, the morning work is intended to be a review to keep students engaged, build confidence, and 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- 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 are typically focused on review. 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.

Geometry Task Cards for 4th Grade

This resource is intended to be a review and practice of Common Core Geometry standards in 4th Grade.

This resource includes:
*28 Task Cards
Answer Sheet
*Answer Key
*Printable Practice Page for Measuring and Drawing Angles

This resource is aligned to the following Common Core Standards:

MACC.4.G.1.2
Classify two-dimensional figures based on the presence or absence of parallel or perpendicular lines, or the presence or absence of angles of a specified size. Recognize right triangles as a category, and identify right triangles.

MACC.4.G.1.1
Draw points, lines, line segments, rays, angles (right, acute, obtuse), and perpendicular and parallel lines. Identify these in two-dimensional figures.

MACC.4.G.1.3
Recognize a line of symmetry for a two-dimensional figure as a line across the figure such that the figure can be folded along the line into matching parts. Identify line-symmetric figures and draw lines of symmetry.

How to Use this Product:
I used this resource in my 4th Grade classroom to practice and review our Geometry unit. There are several ways to use Task Cards in your classroom, depending on your intents and purposes. Here are some of the ways I have used Task Cards in my classroom:

*Early Finisher Task
*Practice New Concepts- Give a few to groups of students, set a timer for 15 mins (or whatever works for you) and then have students rotate cards. Unfinished cards can be finished at the end or at some other time. 
*SCOOT- There are SO many blog posts and free resources for this game on TpT.

About the Product:

This product comes with 48 colorful Spring-Themed Task Cards for Converting Units of Measurement. The Task Cards support the following 4th Grade Standards:

CCSS.4.MD.1.1 Know relative sizes of measurement units within one system of units including Km m, cm; kg, g; lb. oz; L, hr, min, sec. Within a single system of measurement, express measurements in a larger unit in terms of a smaller unit. Record measurement equivalents in a two column table. 

CCSS.4.MD.1.2 Use the four operations to solve word problems involving distances, intervals of time, and money, including problems involving simple fractions or decimals. Represent fractional quantities of distance and intervals of time using linear models.

They can be printed in color or as grayscale black and white. I suggest laminating the cards and printing on card stock so they will last longer. However, I did not do this and printed on regular 8.5 x 11 and then laminated. This worked perfectly fine if you do not have card stock handy (as I did not-hindsight is 20/20, right?). 

After laminating, you can use a book/binder ring to attach the chards. They can then become part of your Math Center as a rotation, small group, tutoring, or for review. Another suggestion for using this is to not expect students to complete all of the cards, especially your struggling students. A blank Answer Sheet is included that students can just write the number for each problem. This is wonderful to use as an early finisher task. Some of the problems require multiple steps, which will be useful with higher level students. My students still work on our Division is SNOW much fun! Task Cards when they finish an assignment, though the snow has long melted (or never arrived since we live in Florida). If you decided to print Black and White, these problems could also be glued in students’ math journal.

Multiplication & Division Task Cards for 4th Grade

This resource is intended to be a review and practice of Common Core Division and Multiplication standards in 4th Grade.

This resource includes:
*32 Task Cards
*Answer Sheet
*Answer Key

This resource is aligned to the following Common Core Standards:

MACC.4.OA.A.1
Interpret a multiplication equation as a comparison, e.g., interpret 35 = 5 x 7 as a statement that 35 is 5 times as many as 7. and 7 times as many as 5. Represent verbal statements of multiplicative comparisons as multiplication equations. 

MACC.4.OA.A.3
Solve multistep word problems posed with whole numbers and having whole-number answers using the four operations, including problems in which remainders must be interpreted. Represent these problems using equations with a letter standing for the unknown quantity. Assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies including rounding. 

MACC.4.NBT.B.5
Multiply a whole number of up to four digits by a one-digit whole number, and multiply two two-digit numbers, 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.

MACC.4.NBT.B.6
Find whole-number quotients and remainders with up to four-digit dividends and one-digit divisors, using strategies based on place value, the properties of operations, and/or the relationship between multiplication and division. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.

The Problems are organized into the following problem types:
#1-4 Multiplicative Comparisons
#5-8 2d x 2d
#9-12 3d x 1d
#13-16 4d x 1d 
#17-20 2d ÷1d
#21-24 2d ÷ 1d interpreting the remainder
#25-28 3d ÷ 1d 
#29-32 4d ÷ 1d 


How to Use this Product:
I used this resource in my 4th Grade classroom to practice and review Multiplication and Division at the end of the year. There are several ways to use Task Cards in your classroom, depending on your intents and purposes. Here are some of the ways I have used Task Cards in my classroom:

*Early Finisher Task

*Practice New Concepts- Give a few to groups of students, set a timer for 15 mins (or whatever works for you) and then have students rotate cards. Unfinished cards can be finished at the end or at some other time. 

*SCOOT- There are SO many blog posts and free resources for this game on TpT.

✨ Bring meaningful word study to your 3rd, 4th or 5th grade classroom with Morphology Morning Work! Worksheets cover prefixes, suffixes, and root words to build stronger vocabulary, word meaning, grammar, spelling, fluency, and reading comprehension skills! Specific themes for EACH day make it quick and easy for you to build a foundation in your classroom! ✨

Morphology skills are not mastered in just one lesson. They need repeated practice noticing word parts, breaking apart unfamiliar words, and using those parts to analyze word meaning. Morphology Morning Work provides a predictable Monday–Friday routine that makes word study easy to implement while helping students strengthen the skills they need to become more confident readers.

✅ What grades is this for?
These are aimed for 3rd-5th grade, but can also be used for differentiation with advanced or struggling readers, special education classes, or ESL students.

✅ What’s Included?

• 19 weeks of printable morphology morning work
• Answer keys
• One week per page (printed front and back)
• Weekly Google Slides presentations with one slide deck per week
• Google Forms

Set A includes 19 weeks of morphology morning work focused on these prefixes and suffixes:

• Prefixes: un-, re-, pre-, non-, mid-, super-
• Suffixes: -s/-es, -ed, -ing, -ly, -er meaning “someone who,” -or, -er meaning “more,” -est, -less, -ful, and -y

The Morphology Morning Work Bundle includes 140 weeks of morphology morning work focused on these prefixes and suffixes, greek and latin roots, etc!

⭐️ BUNDLE + SAVE:

• Morphology Morning Work Bundle
• Morphology Weekly Assessments Bundle (Coming Soon!)
• Morphology Morning Work and Weekly Assessments Bundle (Coming Soon!)

⭐️ How to use the Morphology Morning Work
This bundle is made to help you address your students’ morphology needs in the best way that fits your classroom.

Each set increases in complexity, with Set A being ideal for beginning morphology instruction, and Set D being ideal for advanced instruction.

You could also use these to differentiate in your classroom, with small groups using each of the different sets A-D at the same time.

Set E will include mixed review of all listed prefixes, suffixes and roots, so that you can provide students with a review after going through Sets A-D, or to cover more affixes and roots at once, rather than doing a focused study of each one.

⛅️ Daily Themes ⛅️
Daily themes help you consistently cover critical content, keep your students engaged, and create easy routines.

✏️ Multisyllabic Monday: Monday introduces the week's prefix, suffix, or root and its meaning. Students spot it in sentences, combine it with base words to build new words, then break those words into syllables and sort them — getting comfortable reading longer words right from the start.

✏️ Transformation Tuesday: Tuesday is all about building and changing words. Students add the morpheme to base words, rewrite sentences to show how it changes the meaning, map out the meaning of each word part, and choose the right word to complete a sentence in context.

✏️ Word Work Wednesday: Wednesday puts the morpheme to work in real text. Students hunt for it in a short passage, define the words in context, fix grammar mistakes, and rewrite sentences to use the new word parts correctly.

✏️ Think it Through Thursday: Thursday is about deeper thinking. Students sort words by what the morpheme means, identify parts of speech, and decide which word truly fits. This moves students beyond recognition into real understanding.

✏️ Fluency Friday: Friday brings it all together with a short passage students read three times to build fluency. They find the week's word parts in context and answer comprehension questions that require genuine reading and thinking.
