Maths worksheets for grade 4
15 worksheets and 34 types of task – adjust them for free and print, with an answer sheet if you like.
In grade 4 the numbers get large: the place value chart up to a million, long multiplication and division, the grid method, estimating and word problems with several steps. Cube nets, combinations and chance often come up too.
Which topics come when differs between the German states, schools and textbooks. The number range and the level can be set on every worksheet.

Types of task for grade 4
Each type of task has its own page with an example and matching worksheets.
Calculating
- Quick calculationsGrades 1 to 6Lots of short calculations with plus, minus, times and divided by – for quick practice.
- Your own calculationsGrades 1 to 6Type in your own calculations, also with a gap – the Rechenkiste works out the answers.
- Calculation chainsGrades 1 to 4Calculate step by step from a starting number.
- Number wallsGrades 1 to 4Two neighbouring bricks add up to the brick above them.
- Calculation trianglesGrades 1 to 4Two fields inside add up to the number on the edge.
- Grid methodGrades 3 and 4Split big multiplications into tens and ones and work them out in a grid.
- Column + −Grades 3 to 6Plus and minus written in columns in squares, with carrying – also with decimals.
- Long × and ÷Grades 3 to 5Multiplying and dividing written in columns in squares – from grade 5 also with three-digit factors and two-digit divisors.
- Order of operationsGrades 4 and 5Work out expressions with times and divide before plus and minus, and with brackets, e.g. (12 + 8) · 3.
- Sets of calculationsGrades 1 to 4Calculations with a pattern: work them out, discover the pattern and write down what you notice – also continue a set or find the one that does not fit.
- Calculating in stepsGrades 2 to 4Calculate step by step: first the hundreds, then the tens, then the ones – with the answers in between.
- EstimatingGrades 4 and 5First estimate with rounded numbers, then calculate exactly – or use the estimate to see which answer can be right.
- Mistake detectiveGrades 2 to 6Check other children's calculations: find typical mistakes – a forgotten carry, plus before times, a decimal comma as a separator –, say what went wrong and calculate it correctly.
- Methods of calculatingGrades 2 to 4Calculating in steps with a clever mind: compare and name other children's methods, fill in the steps in between and tick the methods that suit a calculation.
Understanding numbers
- ComparingGrades 1 to 4Compare numbers or calculations and fill in <, > or =.
- Number sequencesGrades 1 to 4Spot the rule of a sequence of numbers and continue it.
- Place value chartGrades 2 to 5Split numbers into hundreds, tens and ones – and back, from grade 5 up to a billion.
- Fractions of shapesGrades 4 to 6Read fractions of strips, circles and rectangles and colour them in – in grade 4 with pictures as a start.
- Number lineGrades 1 to 4Find numbers on the number line and write them in.
- Rounding & estimatingGrades 3 to 5Round numbers and estimate answers.
Measures
Shape & space
- ReflectionGrades 1 to 5Reflect a shape in a mirror line on squared paper.
- Cube buildingsGrades 2 to 4Count the cubes in a building or write its building plan.
- Cube netsGrades 3 to 5Find out whether six squares can be folded into a cube.
- Area & perimeterGrades 3 to 5Work out the area and perimeter of shapes on squared paper.
Data & chance
Puzzles
- Magic squaresGrades 2 to 6Every row, every column and both diagonals add up to the same magic number – find the missing numbers.
- Number sudokuGrades 1 to 6Every number appears exactly once in each row, each column and each box – solvable step by step.
- Magic trianglesGrades 1 to 4Put the numbers 1 to 6 (or 1 to 9) in the circles so that every side has the same total.
- Symbol puzzlesGrades 1 to 4Each symbol stands for a number: the first row gives the first number, and that leads to the next.
