304th grade math skills
2full-length practice tests
Fourth grade math takes a big step up. Students go from multiplication facts to multi-digit multiplication and long division, from simple fractions to equivalent fractions, mixed numbers and decimals, and they start measuring angles and converting units. All of it shows up on one spring test. If you want every skill covered in one place, this workbook was made for you.
The New Jersey NJSLA-A 4th Grade Math Practice Test Workbook is aligned to the 2023 New Jersey Student Learning Standards for Mathematics and built from the NJSLA-A blueprint published by the New Jersey Department of Education. Every question is original, written in the formats your students will see in the spring, and reviewed by a certified teacher.
It’s a Printable PDF, so you can print the pages you need for whole-class lessons, small groups, centers or homework. Below you’ll find what’s inside, a look-inside video and a simple plan for the months before testing.
- A 20-question pretest, a Learn It lesson + test-style practice for all 30 skills, mixed review, test-taking strategies, 2 full-length practice tests and a 342-answer key.
- Each practice test has 41 questions in two sessions, just like the real NJSLA-A math test.
- Printable PDF, 196 full-color pages, $9.99.
- Bubble answer sheets, progress trackers and class data sheets make scoring quick.

What’s inside the NJSLA 4th grade math test prep workbook
The workbook follows the order you’d teach it. Find out what students already know, teach the gaps one skill at a time, mix everything together, then rehearse the real thing twice.
Pretest + scoring guide
20 questions and a guide that shows which skills to teach first.
Learn It + practice
A worked example and a tip, then test-style practice, for all 30 skills.
Every big 4th grade idea
Place value to a million, multi-digit multiplication and division, fractions, decimals, unit conversions, angles and shapes.
Mixed review + strategies
30 mixed questions and four pages of test-taking tips for the big day.
2 full-length practice tests
41 questions each, split into Session 1 and Session 2 like the real test.
Answer key + trackers
342 answers, progress trackers, class data sheets and a certificate.
The question types match the real test: answer boxes, multiple choice, “select all that apply” questions, tables to match and tables to fill in. On the computer, a few questions ask students to shade a decimal model or build a line plot, so the book prints the model or plot and practices the same skill with an answer box. Once 4th graders have met every format, test day is about the math, not the question style.

What’s on the NJSLA-A 4th grade math test?
The NJSLA-A (New Jersey Student Learning Assessments–Adaptive) was new in the 2025–26 school year. It’s taken online, and it’s computer-adaptive: after each group of questions, the next group gets a little harder or easier. Students answer 41 math questions in two sessions of about 75 minutes each.
The questions come from four areas: base ten, fractions, operations and algebraic thinking together with measurement, and a smaller group on geometry and data. Fourth graders get no calculator and no reference sheet, just scratch paper and blank graph paper, so they need to know their unit conversions by heart. On the real test, students can’t go back to Session 1 once Session 2 starts, so each practice test in the book is split the same way.
The skills use the 2023 New Jersey standard codes, where measurement (4.M) and data literacy (4.DL) replaced the old 4.MD codes.

When do 4th graders take the NJSLA-A math test?
The NJSLA-A is a spring test. For the 2026–27 school year, the statewide window runs from April 19 to May 21, 2027, and each district picks its own days inside it. Here’s an easy way to spread your NJSLA 4th grade math test prep across the year so spring never turns into a cram session.

NJSLA 4th grade math test prep: questions teachers ask
Is this workbook made by the New Jersey Department of Education?
No. Have Fun Teaching wrote every question from scratch, and a certified teacher reviewed the book. It is aligned to the 2023 New Jersey Student Learning Standards for Mathematics and built from the published NJSLA-A blueprint, but it is an independent practice resource and does not use real test items.
How many questions are on the NJSLA-A 4th grade math test?
The math test has 41 questions in two sessions of about 75 minutes each. It is online and computer-adaptive, so each group of questions adjusts to how students did on the last one. Each practice test in this workbook also has 41 questions, split into Session 1 and Session 2.
How much does the workbook cost?
The Printable PDF is $9.99 for all 196 full-color pages, and you can print as many copies as your students need. With a Have Fun Teaching membership, the PDF is included at no extra cost, along with the Printable PDF of every other state test prep workbook and the rest of the library.
Can 4th graders use a calculator or a reference sheet on the NJSLA-A?
No. Grade 4 has no calculator and no reference sheet, so students need to know conversions like 1,000 grams in a kilogram and 60 minutes in an hour. They get blank scratch paper and graph paper. That is why the workbook practices multi-digit math and conversions by hand, with a Work Space under every question for showing their thinking.
When should I start NJSLA 4th grade math test prep?
Start with the pretest in the fall, then teach the skills it flags a few times a week through winter. Give Practice Test 1 in early spring and Practice Test 2 a few weeks later. The 2026–27 testing window runs from April 19 to May 21, 2027.
Walk into test day ready.
Start with the pretest this week, and have every skill covered by spring.
