How the NDSA structures Grade 4 math

Framework

North Dakota administered its own state assessment program (the NDSA, a Cambium computer-adaptive test in grades 3-8 and 10; replaced by ND A+ beginning spring 2025). An official NDSA mathematics public-facing CAT blueprint (Cambium/NDDPI, Oct 2020) does exist and lists per-grade reporting categories with percentage ranges, but its full per-grade table could not be retrieved character-for-character from a citable primary source for transcription here (the Cambium content CDN blocks programmatic access). The NDSA reporting categories are the CCSS-M grade-level domains: the assessment was built on North Dakota's 2017 math standards, which are verbatim CCSS-M organized by grade-level domains. The coverage map below uses North Dakota's 2023-standards-style domain/standard codes (e.g. 3.AR.OA) but the skill content is CCSS-M.

Blueprint & weighting

An official NDSA mathematics CAT blueprint (Cambium/NDDPI public-facing CAT version, Oct 2020) publishes per-grade reporting-category percentage ranges (e.g. grade 3 Operations and Algebraic Thinking ~31-34%, Number and Operations in Base Ten ~22-24%; grade 6 groups Ratios & Proportional Relationships and The Number System ~28-34% and Expressions and Equations ~25-29%). The complete per-grade table could not be retrieved verbatim from a citable primary source (the Cambium content CDN returns HTTP 403 to programmatic fetches), so domain weights in the mapping are left null rather than transcribing partial/uncertain figures or splitting blueprint percentages across the grade-6+ domain groupings.

Questions

NDSA Grade 4 math FAQ

What math does the NDSA cover in Grade 4?

Grade 4 math on the NDSA is reported across 3 official domains: Operations, Algebraic Thinking, Number and Operations—Fractions, Measurement and Data. Each domain page here maps that reporting category to playable practice skills.

What standards is the NDSA based on?

The North Dakota State Assessment is built on North Dakota State Content Standards for Mathematics (North Dakota). North Dakota administered its own state assessment program (the NDSA, a Cambium computer-adaptive test in grades 3-8 and 10; replaced by ND A+ beginning spring 2025).

How is Grade 4 math weighted on the NDSA?

An official NDSA mathematics CAT blueprint (Cambium/NDDPI public-facing CAT version, Oct 2020) publishes per-grade reporting-category percentage ranges (e.g. grade 3 Operations and Algebraic Thinking ~31-34%, Number and Operations in Base Ten ~22-24%;

How can students practice for the NDSA Grade 4 math test for free?

Every NDSA Grade 4 domain page includes free practice questions with worked answers — 24 sample questions across these domains — and each skill links to arcade games that drill it. No sign-up is needed to start.
