Free 5th grade math games and practice

Peabody's 5th grade math path has 39 short lesson parts in 6 skill areas, from "Adding with different bottoms" to "Patterns that make ordered pairs". Ten right answers finish a part, and every part is open. Practice starts on big numbers, fractions, decimals, negatives and algebra, times tables and division. All free through the end of 2026.

Skill areaPartsSome of the parts
Common denominators3Adding with different bottoms, Taking away with different bottoms and Mixed numbers, different bottoms
Decimals1Adding and taking away decimals
Shapes and geometry5Shape families, Always, sometimes, never and Name it by its properties
Number sense18Order of operations, Brackets and braces and Expressions in words
Measurement and data7Convert metric units, Convert customary units and Fair shares on a line plot
Number line and coordinate plane5The x-axis, the y-axis and ordered pairs, Read an ordered pair on a grid and Find the dot for an ordered pair

On screen this path is called Level 7, so a child never has to think about which grade they are "supposed" to be in. A part is finished by ten right answers; a wrong one makes the next problem a little easier and never costs anything.

The lesson parts in 5th grade math

The first 24 of 39 parts, in the order Peabody lists them:

  1. Adding with different bottoms: Make the pieces match, then add.
  2. Taking away with different bottoms: Match the pieces, then take away.
  3. Mixed numbers, different bottoms: Wholes with wholes, pieces with pieces.
  4. Adding and taking away decimals: Line up the dots.
  5. Shape families: Is every square a rectangle?
  6. Order of operations: Groups first, then × ÷, then + −
  7. Convert metric units: 3.5 km = ? m
  8. Always, sometimes, never: Compare quadrilaterals
  9. Brackets and braces: Inside out
  10. Convert customary units: 2.5 gallons = ? cups
  11. Name it by its properties: Pick the most exact name
  12. Expressions in words: Write the expression
  13. Fair shares on a line plot: Even out the amounts
  14. Triangles by properties: Name by sides and angles
  15. Patterns with two rules: Pair up the terms
  16. Count cubes in layers: A layer, then how many layers
  17. Faces, edges, vertices: Prisms and pyramids
  18. Powers of ten: 10³ = 1,000
  19. Volume of a box: V = l × w × h, and V = B × h
  20. Multiply 3 digits by 2 digits: The standard algorithm
  21. Joined solids: Split, find each volume, add
  22. Divide 4 digits by 2 digits: No remainder
  23. Volume word problems: Tanks, water depth and packing
  24. Division with a remainder: What is left over?

…and 15 more parts in the full path.

What practice starts on

Beside the lessons, the practice brain brings facts back on a schedule. For a 5th grade child it works on multi-digit arithmetic, fractions, decimals and percents, negative numbers and algebra, times tables and division facts. The whole math ladder, lowest rung first, is counting, making ten, adding, taking away, number sense, times tables, division, big numbers, fractions, decimals and negatives and algebra; a child starts on the rung their grade puts them on and moves up when answers are solid, so a child who is ahead is not held back and a question answered right is done for good.

Questions parents ask

What does Peabody's 5th grade math cover?

39 lesson parts across common denominators, decimals, shapes and geometry, number sense, measurement and data and number line and coordinate plane, from adding with different bottoms to patterns that make ordered pairs. They are short, they are made and marked by code, and they are not matched to state standards.

Does my child have to do the parts in order?

No. Every part is open. The first one not yet finished is marked "Up next" as a suggestion, so a child can go to whatever the class is doing this week.

Is it free?

Yes, free through the end of 2026, with no sign-up. Peabody has no written work, no standards report and no test, so it is practice, not a full curriculum.
