Year 4 Christmas maths worksheets

Australian Curriculum v9.0Dollars and cents, metric, A4Answer key computed in code

A free 3-page Christmas maths booklet for Year 4, set in an Australian summer Christmas. Multiplication, rounding and fraction warm-ups, adding and subtracting four-digit numbers, facts to 10 x 10 in context, fractions of a collection, cutting ribbon in metres and centimetres, and Christmas shopping with change. Print it for the class, turn on the answer key for marking, or switch edition for a fresh set with the same skills.

How to use it in class

  • Ask students to estimate first (round to the nearest 10 or 100) and then check the exact answer.
  • The ribbon problems are a good excuse to measure real ribbon or string in metres and centimetres.
  • Early finishers can write their own Christmas story problem for a partner.

Is it right for my class?

Suits Year 4 from November. The Year 5 booklet adds decimals and percentages if your class is ready.

28 questions over 3 pages. After the warm-up the pages are story problems, so students read more there; read them aloud for early readers.
