These 4th Grade Operations and Algebraic Thinking leveled assessments cover all Common Core standards for 4th grade operations and algebraic thinking, including multiplicative comparison word problems, multi-step word problems, factors, multiples, prime and composite numbers, and generating and analyzing patterns in function tables and images (4.OA.1–4.OA.5).
Three versions of each Operations and Algebraic Thinking assessment (Version 1, Version 2, and Version 3) include three differentiated levels of mastery — “Building Blocks,” “Goals,” and “Stretching Beyond.” This gives you flexible options for pre-assessment, independent practice, post-assessment, review, and end-of-year test prep across a range of student abilities.
With these leveled assessment options, you can collect meaningful data to drive instruction and provide all learners an opportunity to show true growth in their understanding of operations and algebraic thinking concepts.
Leveled assessments align with a growth mindset approach to math learning, support instructional decisions as you differentiate your math instruction, and simplify standards-based grading. With correlations across three levels of difficulty, teachers, students, parents, and stakeholders can clearly see a continuum of learning — leaving “one-size-fits-all” math instruction behind.
