A very helpful resource
This resource is helpful to review previously learned skills for my 4th grade students. It also helps me determine which skills I need to reteach.
Very Useful!
I teach 5th grade but have found that I spend a great deal of time reviewing 4th grade skills students forgot before we can even touch on our grade level concepts. I used most of these pages to help review the skills and made a booklet for the students. I just wish there was a version that did not have page numbers on them so I can put them in the order that supports our grade level curriculum.
Very Useful
I really enjoy this resource and the students are having fun taking notes on it. It covers everything we teach for 5th grade. I just wish there was a version that did not have page numbers on them. I ordered the pages so it follows along with our curriculum and made a booklet for the kids but the numbers already on them don't align to this order.
Helpful, but has not been added to lately
When can we expect the Decimal Operations doodle pages?
These are so much fun, and look so inviting in the student binders. I really want to keep using them because they are terrific.
Hello, Lauren. This is a growing bundle. The price will increase each time I add more sketch notes. Previous buyers will get all new units that I add for free. The price is based on the current material included in the bundle. Buyers are not promised future materials because this bundle is priced according to current value.
Good for guided work
I bought these for homework for my 4th graders and I think I need to work with them on a couple first to teach them how to answer some of the questions. Some are worded in a confusing way but others are great and hit the standards well. I do like that some of the topics align with our reading program topics but not in the same order which means sometimes I have to cross out questions that relate to a previous one we haven't done yet. Overall though I find it beneficial.

Is there a Math Tiles bundle or does each need to be purchased individually? Thank you
I do have a build-your-own bundle option:
There seems to be something very wrong with this PDF file. It crashes my preview application every single time, but other files don't crash it. It's also VERY glitchy when I open the pdf using an online browser.
Also, there are a few pages with answers filled in.
Hi Robyn. I made some changes to the graphics in the file, so it would load more smoothly. I recommend opening and printing all of my files from Adobe Reader for best results. I also deleted some of those answers that mistakenly were left on some of the cards. Please let me know if the changes I made help. You can download the new version under "my purchases."
