Use this comprehensive resource to improve your students’ overall math fluency,
which will promote greater self-confidence in their math skills as well as provide
the everyday practice necessary to succeed in a testing situation.
Fourth-Grade Math Minutes features 100 “Minutes.” Each Minute consists of ten
classroom-tested problems for students to complete in one minute. Each Minute
includes questions of varying degrees of difficulty, integrating problem-solving
and basic math skills. This unique format offers students an ongoing opportunity
to improve their own fluency in a manageable, nonthreatening format. The quick,
one-minute format combined with instant feedback makes this a challenging and
motivational assignment students will look forward to each day. Students
become active learners as they discover mathematical relationships and apply
acquired understanding to the solution of realistic problems in each Minute.

How to Use This Book
Fourth-Grade Math Minutes can be used in a variety of ways. Use one Minute
a day for warm-up activities, bell-work, review, assessment, or a home-
work assignment. Keep in mind that students will get the most benefit
from their daily Minute if they receive immediate feedback. If you assign
the Minute as homework, correct it in class at the beginning of the day.
If you use the Minutes as a timed activity, place the paper facedown on the
students’ desks, or display it as a transparency. Use a clock or kitchen timer
to measure one minute. Encourage students to concentrate on completing
each problem successfully and not to dwell on problems they cannot
complete. At the end of the minute, have students stop working. Then,
read the answers from the answer key (pages 108–112), or display them on
a transparency. Have students correct their own work and record their
score on the Minute Journal reproducible (page 6). Then, have the class go
over each problem together to discuss the solution(s). Spend more time on
problems that were clearly challenging for most of the class. Tell students
that difficult problems will appear on future Minutes and they will have
other opportunities for success.
4
Teach students strategies for improving their scores, especially if you time
their work on each Minute. Tell students to
• leave more time-consuming problems for last
• come back to problems they are unsure of after they have completed all
other problems
• make educated guesses when they encounter problems they are
unfamiliar with
• rewrite word problems as number problems
• use mental math wherever possible
Students will learn to apply these strategies to other timed-test situations.
The Minutes are designed to improve math fluency and should not be
included as part of a student’s overall math grade. However, the Minutes
provide an excellent opportunity for you to see which skills the class as a
whole needs to practice or review. This knowledge will help you plan the
content of future math lessons. A class that consistently has difficulty with
reading graphs, for example, may make excellent use of your lesson in that
area, especially if they know they will have other opportunities to achieve
success in this area on future Minutes. Have students file their Math
Journal and Minutes for that week in a location accessible to you both.
Class discussions of the problems will help you identify which math skills
to review. However, you may find it useful to review the Minutes on a
weekly basis before sending them home with students at the end of the
week.
While you will not include student Minute scores in your formal grading,
you may wish to recognize improvements by awarding additional privi-
leges or offering a reward if the entire class scores above a certain level for
a week or more. Showing students that you recognize their efforts provides
additional motivation to succeed!
