Free Grade 4 planning companion
Turn math diagnostic patterns into five focused teaching days
Use anonymous class-level counts from a school- or board-permitted diagnostic, review a transparent priority suggestion, and shape a teacher-controlled response across Ontario Grade 4 math.
Both files download immediately. No account, email gate, student login, or planner upload is required.
Scope boundary: this is a results-to-next-steps companion, not a diagnostic assessment. It is not Ministry-, board-, or EQAO-approved and must not be used for grading, placement, identification, IEP, or special-education decisions.
A transparent four-move flow
Move from evidence to instruction without turning a formula into a label
Summarize the pattern
Enter aggregate class counts for eight Grade 4 math focus areas. Do not enter student names, identifiers, records, or individual marks.
Review and decide
Use the suggested priority as a triage prompt, check the original task and opportunity to learn, then keep or override the suggestion.
Shape five days
Plan a whole-class focus, flexible support group, core practice, extension, and a low-stakes check that can generate fresh evidence.
Inside the free planner
Printable guidance, editable calculations, and a next-action bridge
12-page printable PDF
A four-move guide, class-summary sheet, next-step decision page, five-day planner, misconception map, and synthetic worked example.
Six-sheet Excel planner
Formula-driven class summary, teacher override, ranked next steps, five-day response plan, teaching map, and a clearly labelled fictional example.
How the suggestion works
The workbook weights the Needs support share fully and the Developing share at one-half, then displays High, Medium, or Monitor as a suggested instructional priority.
That score is a triage aid - not an achievement level, cut score, diagnosis, or student classification. The teacher checks task quality, curriculum context, accessibility, opportunity to learn, and new evidence before keeping or overriding it.
Privacy before convenience
Keep the planning useful by keeping student records out
The resource is deliberately class-level. If an individual plan is needed, use the secure systems and processes approved by the school or board.
- Use aggregate class counts only - no names, initials, student numbers, dates of birth, email addresses, photos, identifiable work, or individual marks.
- Do not enter IEP, special-education, medical, behavioural, family, or other private student information.
- The PDF and workbook download directly and run locally. The page does not receive or upload completed planner data.
- The newsletter signup is separate and optional. It records the email and express-consent evidence needed for subscription and may send one welcome email with a separate first-week reading printable; it does not email or unlock this Grade 4 planner.
- Do not paste a completed tracker or private records into any digital tool.
Questions before use
Planner FAQ
Is this a diagnostic assessment?
No. It is a results-to-next-steps planning companion. Use it only after a teacher has gathered evidence with a diagnostic tool permitted by the school or board.
Does the planner decide which students need support?
No. Its formula summarizes anonymous class-level patterns and suggests an instructional priority. The teacher reviews the original tasks, context, access, and new evidence before deciding what to teach or how to group flexibly.
Can I enter student names or individual marks?
No. Enter aggregate counts only. Keep student records in board-approved systems and follow school or board privacy requirements.
Will the optional email form send me these files?
No. Both planner files download immediately from this page. A first successful signup may send one welcome email with a separate first-week reading printable, followed by the occasional classroom-resource emails covered by the express consent checkbox.
