This bundle includes all the monthly morning work for Grades 1-5 Math August-June. All of the months are 4-5 weeks long.
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.
✅ Looking for another grade level? The morning work/daily review is available for ELA in Grades 1-10 and Math for Grades 1-6. Use the link below to shop for your grade level.

This product came as a result of my first year teaching 5th grade. I found that my 5th graders had difficulty with friendships and social skills in general. Can’t we say this about MANY kids, no matter what their age, abilities, ethnicity, or gender?
Around the Thanksgiving holidays, I knew something had to be done. Over the Thanksgiving break I sent this home for homework. Since I knew they would be with their family (hopefully) and possibly be around family members they do not see very often. I pictured students connecting with their family members asking these questions and finding out more about themselves and hopefully they would bring this insight back with them after the break. I’m not sure this assignment changed the world, but when I read over their interviews it warmed my heart and helped change my classroom.
I found this assignment had 3 major benefits:
Allowed for honest conversations between families that may not have existed otherwise.
Students became more aware of their own strengths and weaknesses.
I gained insight into the relationships students have with their family member’s based on the response, as well as insight into how students feel about themselves.
Upon completion of this assignment, you can use this as a more in-depth goal-setting tool. Also, this could be used as a conversation tool to help students connect with their peers and improve relationships in the classroom.

The pages included in this pack are ocean themed problems that are perfect for an end of year 4th or 5th grade review, but could also be used when teaching a multiplication and/or division unit. The activities are a resource to help reinforce the concepts of:
multiplying by 1, 2, and 3 digit numbers dividing by 1 and 2 digit numbers multiplicative comparison problems factors and multiples finding common factors
The pages could be put together as a packet, given out individually, or assigned for homework. They are meant to be used in whichever way suits you. I used these pages in my 4th grade classroom through the last few weeks of school as a review. I chose pages to copy front and back. The pages lend themselves to be mixed and matched however you please! There are Answer Keys included for each page. Please see below for a brief explanation of each page.
So Many Factors in the Sea {1 page} - Six word problems for finding the factors of a whole number.
The Sieve of Eratosthenes {1 page} - An activity to find all the prime numbers using the strategy of the Greek mathematician.
So Many Factors in the Sea {1 Coloring Page} - Students will find the factors of 4 different numbers and shade in ocean creatures using the key. (One of the most fun activities in this pack!)
A Sea of Multiplication - {3 pages} Word Problems + Naked Number Problems. The pages are numbered to prevent any confusion!
Diving into Division - {1 Page} Word Problems + Naked Number Problems
An Ocean of Inequalities {1 page} - Students compare expressions and numbers.

Converting Units of Measurement Task Cards {Spring into Measurement!}

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.
