Summer Review Sheets — Answer Key
Part A: Fix the Sentence
Each sentence has an error. Rewrite it correctly on the line.
1. Fix the sentence:
The campers builded a campfire before the sun went down.
Corrected: The campers built a campfire before the sun went down.
The past tense of 'build' is 'built', not 'builded'. 'Build' is an irregular verb that does not use the normal '-ed' ending.
2. Fix the sentence:
48 marshmallows shared equally among 6 friends gives each friend 9 marshmallows.
Corrected: 48 marshmallows shared equally among 6 friends gives each friend 8 marshmallows.
48 ÷ 6 = 8 marshmallows each, not 9. Check: 6 × 8 = 48.
3. Fix the sentence:
If you hike 36 of the trail, you have hiked three sixths or one third.
Corrected: If you hike 36 of the trail, you have hiked three sixths or one half.
36 simplifies to 12 by dividing both numbers by 3. One third would equal 26, not 36.
Part B: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. 9 times 5 hiking boots equals 45 hiking boots.
9 × 5 = 45. Skip-counting by 5 nine times gives 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45.
2. A adjective is a word that describes a noun, like hot, blue, or tall.
Adjectives describe nouns by giving details like color, size, or feeling. Examples include 'hot', 'blue', and 'tall'.
3. 27 divided by 3 equals 9.
27 ÷ 3 = 9. Check: 3 × 9 = 27, so the division works perfectly.
4. One kilogram is equal to 1,000 grams.
The prefix 'kilo-' means 1,000, so 1 kilogram equals 1,000 grams. Metric units often use 1,000 as a conversion factor.
Part C: True or False?
Read each statement. Circle True or False.
1. 7 times 7 equals 49.
True False
7 × 7 = 49. This is a square number because the same number is multiplied by itself.
2. 14 is greater than 13.
True False
14 is actually smaller than 13 because fourths are smaller pieces than thirds. When cut into more pieces, each piece gets smaller.
3. 35 divided by 7 equals 6.
True False
35 ÷ 7 is actually 5, not 6. Check: 7 × 5 = 35. 7 × 6 would give 42, not 35.
