About this resource

What's inside this resource

Sixteen sets of bingo clues, numbered 1 through 16, give a 4th-grade math class review across decimal place value, division remainders, factors and multiples, fraction-to-decimal conversion, making change, decimal addition and subtraction, simple one-step equations, area and perimeter, and unit conversion (minutes to hours, inches to feet, days to weeks). Teacher directions explain that every clue within a numbered set is designed so its correct answer equals that set's number, so students fill a randomly ordered 4×4 bingo board with the numbers 1-16 and mark the matching square as the teacher reads clues aloud from whichever sets are chosen that round. The directions recommend asking about 8-10 clues per round with 20 or more students, note that 5-6 students typically bingo with that many clues, and estimate the sixteen sets provide enough material for roughly 12-15 games.

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Students identify decimal place value (tenths and hundredths) from given numbers.

  • Students find remainders in division and list factors or identify multiples of a number.

  • Students convert between fractions and decimals and solve one-step addition equations.

  • Students calculate the area or perimeter of rectangles, squares, and triangles and convert between units of time and length.

Teaching tips

  • Use a highlighter to mark each clue as it's asked, and switch highlighter colors between games, exactly as the directions specify, to avoid repeating a clue.

  • Plan for about 8-10 clues per round when playing with 20 or more students, per the included directions.

  • Rotate which of the 16 numbered clue sets you draw from each game so the same 12-15 games don't repeat identical clues.

Skills covered

  • Decimal place value identification — students name the digit in the tenths or hundredths place for numbers like 0.14 or 2.37.

  • Division remainders and factors/multiples — students find remainders (e.g. 23 divided by 6) and list factors or multiples of a given number.

  • Fraction-decimal conversion and one-step equations — students convert fractions like 3/10 to decimal form and solve equations such as a + 8 = 11.

  • Area, perimeter, and unit conversion — students compute the area of a rectangle or perimeter of a triangle and convert between minutes/hours, inches/feet, and days/weeks.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource

How does each numbered clue set guarantee students mark the correct square on their board?

Every clue within a numbered set (e.g. all of 'Clues for 7') is written so its correct solution equals that set's own number, so whichever clue the teacher reads, students mark the matching number on their board.

Curriculum

Standards, concepts & topics

Standards

  • 4.NBT.B.6 — Find whole-number quotients and remainders with up to four-digit dividends and one-digit divisors, using strategies based on place value, the properties of operations, and/or the relationship between multiplication and division. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.
  • 4.OA.B.4 — Find all factor pairs for a whole number in the range 1–100. Recognize that a whole number is a multiple of each of its factors. Determine whether a given whole number in the range 1–100 is a multiple of a given one-digit number. Determine whether a given whole number in the range 1–100 is prime or composite.
  • 4.NF.C.6 — Use decimal notation for fractions with denominators 10 or 100. For example, rewrite 0.62 as 62/100; describe a length as 0.62 meters; locate 0.62 on a number line diagram.
