One page to give on the first day of the unit on multiplying and dividing decimals, before any teaching. Its six questions are on the 4th grade work the unit builds on: a whole number times a fraction in tenths and hundredths, estimating a product by rounding to tens, fractions as decimals, multiplying 2-digit numbers, long division by a 1-digit number, and tenths as hundredths. It has a Score line, and the key names the lesson each question leads into. The unit review and the unit test are packs of their own.
Give the pre-check on the first day and sort the class by what they missed: a student who cannot yet multiply 46 × 27 or divide by a 1-digit number needs that practice before decimals are added, and one who misses the fractions needs tenths strips and hundred grids for the first lessons. Nothing on the page multiplies or divides a decimal yet, so a low score is no surprise; it shows where to start.
Use it to see what your child needs before the unit starts: multiply two 2-digit numbers together, and ask how many hundredths are in 0.4.

A check to give before the unit on multiplying and dividing decimals, on the fraction, decimal and whole number work it builds on. Students multiply a whole number by a fraction, estimate a product, write fractions as decimals, multiply 2-digit numbers, divide by a 1-digit number and write tenths as hundredths.
