Storm-season problems push fourth graders to slow down and check each step. Multiple choice covers 8 rain jackets at $23 plus a $34 donation, a passage where dark clouds and low-flying birds hint at an approaching storm, the perimeter of a 17x13 rain garden, and 2/7 of 84 gallons of rainwater going to animals. Fill-ins extend the range with a $200 rain-barrel total, 288 weather readings across 12 months, and 5/6 of a 48-gallon tank.
An author's purpose item and a 21x14 courtyard perimeter weave reading and geometry together. Every question asks students to justify their reasoning, not just guess.
