I’m excited to share this Fall Multistep Word Problems Pixel Art activity designed for 4th-grade students! It features 24 engaging questions that cover addition and subtraction with both smaller and larger whole numbers. Using Google Sheets, the self-checking format allows for instant feedback—incorrect answers turn red while correct ones unlock parts of a fun mystery picture. Aligned with standards like 4.OA.A.3, this resource not only reinforces essential math skills but also keeps students motivated throughout the Halloween and Thanksgiving seasons!
