Whether you choose to give your students a printable version or have them complete it digitally with the Paint Bucket tool, we’re sure your class will have a blast making their way through the four different number searches.

How to Use These Math Worksheets for Year 4

This teacher-created set of worksheets will give your student the opportunity to practise determining elapsed time to the hour, half, quarter-hour, and minute. Each worksheet is marked with a star in the upper right-hand corner, designating which version they are working on.

After students have solved each problem, they will look for the answer in the number search grid. The correct answers may be found horizontally or vertically.
