FREE MATH LESSON - “4th Grade Multi-Step Word Problem of the Day Story Problems Back to School”

by Tessa Maguire
3rd - 4th Grade


Build problem solving skills and confidence with a Word Problem of the Day - setting your students up for state testing success! Through daily practice with multistep story problems, students build problem solving strategies and mastery of the 4th grade math standards.

These 4th grade multi-step story problems contain rigorous, real-world applications of the math standards and are guided and independent practice activities with varying levels of difficulty. With daily, on-going practice with the standards spiraled throughout the year, students build their understanding of they types of word problems on state assessments and build their strategies, comfort, and mastery of the standards.

These free 10 pages are the perfect jumpstart to your Problem of the Day with review of the 3rd grade standards.

Some pages can be completed by students independently while others are intended for students to experience a productive struggle as they work to apply what they know. The purpose of varying the difficulty of the skills is to build confidence in students’ problem solving strategies, while also pushing them to try new strategies independently. Some word problems include many steps to reach the solution while others require students to explain their work.

The sets provide enough pages so that a page can be completed each day as a Word Problem of the Day, if you wish, with additional pages going home for independent practice. These can be easily printed and stapled for daily use, or these are also perfect for inclusion in interactive notebooks.
