Features

Forms A and B ask the same questions with different data
Write the missing labels on a line plot marked in eighths, then plot lengths in halves, quarters and eighths
Add and subtract fractions to answer questions about a line plot
Tally number data into a frequency table
Make a stem-and-leaf plot and find its mode, median and range
Answer questions from a bar graph that counts by halves and from a line graph
List the outcomes of a spinner, say how likely an event is, and write a probability as a fraction
The Common Core questions come first; the six after them are for the states that teach them in 4th grade
Answer keys name the lesson and skill of every question

Skills Covered

How to Use This Pack

The unit test for the 4th grade unit on data, line plots and probability. Pages 1 and 2 are Form A. Pages 3 and 4 are Form B: the same questions in the same order with different data, for a retake, a make-up or a second seating. Each form has 8 questions and a Score line on its first page. Questions 1 and 2 are the Common Core line plot lessons; questions 3 to 8 (a frequency table, a stem-and-leaf plot, a bar graph that counts by halves, a line graph, how likely an event is, and probability as a fraction) are for the states that teach them in 4th grade. The pre-check and the unit review are packs of their own.

In the Classroom

Give Form A the day after the unit review. A class that follows the Common Core can stop after question 2 and score out of 2. In other states, give the questions your state teaches: frequency tables (Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Texas and Virginia), stem-and-leaf plots with the mode, median and range (Florida and Texas), bar graphs with a fraction scale (Georgia, Indiana, Oklahoma and South Carolina), line graphs (Virginia), how likely an event is (South Carolina and Virginia) and probability as a fraction (Virginia). Questions 2, 5 and 6 have two parts and questions 7 and 8 three: give the point when every part is right, or a share of the point for each part. The answer keys name each question's skill, so a missed question points to the lesson to reteach.

At Home

Use Form B as a check after the unit. Measure a few pencils or leaves to the nearest eighth inch together and make a line plot of the lengths, then ask how much longer the longest is than the shortest.

Tips for Success

Write halves and quarters as eighths before plotting them
Find the longest and shortest lengths on a line plot by the X's at each end
Put the leaves of a stem-and-leaf plot in order from least to greatest
Look at what each grid line counts by before reading a graph
Use Form B as a retake after reteaching what was missed

Common Core Standards Alignment

This pack supports the following Common Core State Standards for Mathematics:

3.MD.B.3 Make picture and bar graphs where each symbol or square stands for several items, and answer one- and two-step comparison questions from them.
4.NF.B.3a Understand adding and subtracting fractions as joining and taking away parts of the same whole.
4.NF.B.3c Add and subtract mixed numbers with the same denominator, for example by changing them to fractions or by using properties of operations.
4.NF.B.3d Solve story problems that add or subtract fractions of the same whole with like denominators, using fraction models and equations.
4.MD.B.4 Make a line plot of measurements in halves, quarters and eighths, and use it to solve problems that add and subtract fractions.

4th Grade Data and Probability Test

4th Grade4th Grade Math Curriculum

The unit test for line plots in eighths and the data and chance lessons many states add, in two forms. Students make and use line plots, tally a frequency table, make a stem-and-leaf plot, read bar and line graphs, and say how likely an event is, in words and as a fraction.
