Weeks 1 to 4: place value, rounding, adding and subtracting

Adding and subtracting to 10,000, the value of a digit, expanded form, rounding to thousands and comparing.

Weeks 5 to 8: multiplying, factors and multiples

Mental math with multiples of 10, multiplying by a 1-digit number, factors, multiples and primes, and comparison stories.

Weeks 9 to 12: dividing, remainders and 2-digit multiplication

Mental division, long division with remainders, 4-digit by 1-digit and 2-digit by 2-digit multiplication, and remainder stories.

Weeks 13 to 16: order of operations, patterns and multi-step problems

About these morning work for 4th graders worksheets

Morning work is a short page children do on their own at the start of the day, while the teacher takes attendance. It works best as review: a few problems on skills already taught, done every day, so nothing is forgotten by the end of the year.

This set has 80 pages, one for each school day of 16 weeks, in four blocks that follow the 4th grade year: place value, rounding, adding and subtracting first; then multiplying, factors and multiples; then long division, remainders and 2-digit multiplication; and finally order of operations, patterns and multi-step problems. Each page ends with a word problem.

Every page has an answer key, and every page is different, so the set also works as homework or a quick daily check at home.

Standards

  • CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.4.NBT.A.2Read and write multi-digit whole numbers using base-ten numerals, number names, and expanded form. Compare two multi-digit numbers based on meanings of the digits in each place, using >, =, and < symbols to record the results of comparisons.
  • CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.4.NBT.A.3Use place value understanding to round multi-digit whole numbers to any place.
  • CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.4.NBT.B.4Fluently add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.
  • CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.4.NBT.B.5Multiply 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.
  • CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.4.NBT.B.6Find 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.
  • CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.4.OA.A.3Solve 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.
  • CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.4.OA.B.4Find all factor pairs for a whole number in the range 1–100. Recognize that a whole number is a multiple of each of its factors. Determine whether a given whole number in the range 1–100 is a multiple of a given one-digit number. Determine whether a given whole number in the range 1–100 is prime or composite.
  • CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.4.OA.C.5Generate a number or shape pattern that follows a given rule. Identify apparent features of the pattern that were not explicit in the rule itself. For example, given the rule "Add 3" and the starting number 1, generate terms in the resulting sequence and observe that the terms appear to alternate between odd and even numbers. Explain informally why the numbers will continue to alternate in this way.

How to use them

  1. Give one page each morning; most children need 10 to 15 minutes.
  2. Go over one or two problems together afterwards, especially the word problem.
  3. Use the blocks in order, or pick the block that matches what your class is reviewing.
  4. Keep finished pages in a folder to show progress over the term.

Teaching tips

  • Let children use the answer key to check their own work on Fridays.
  • If a skill keeps going wrong, go back to the full worksheets for that topic.
  • Read the word problem aloud for children who find long text hard.

Questions teachers and parents ask

What is morning work?
