What is on the Grade 4 Math SOL test?

The Grade 4 Math Virginia SOL test is organized into 5 reporting strands: Number and Number Sense, Computation and Estimation, Measurement and Geometry, Probability and Statistics, Patterns, Functions, and Algebra. It assesses the 18 Standards of Learning listed on this page.

How many standards does Grade 4 Math cover?

Grade 4 Math covers 18 individual Virginia SOL standards across its 5 strands.

Where can I find Grade 4 Math SOL practice tests?

The Virginia Department of Education publishes official released tests and practice items at doe.virginia.gov — see our Virginia SOL practice tests guide for direct links. SOL Prep adds standard-by-standard practice for each of the 18 Grade 4 Math standards below.

How should I study for the Grade 4 Math SOL?

Start with a diagnostic to find which of the 18 Grade 4 Math standards you're weakest on, then focus practice there instead of re-reviewing what you already know. Work each standard's skills, then take a mixed practice check.
