Class 4 Maths Sample Papers 2026-27 (Term 1) โ€“ Tiwari Academy
Post Date:

Class 4 students preparing for their Half-Yearly (Term 1) Maths exam for the 2026โ€“27 session now have a complete set of practice material to work with. Tiwari Academy brings you 10 free Mathematics Class 4 Sample Papers – 5 in English Medium and 5 in Hindi Medium โ€” based on the latest NCERT Maths Mela textbook and covering Chapters 1 to 7, exactly as prescribed for the half-yearly exam. Every paper follows the real exam blueprint of 50 marks across three sections, so your child gets genuine hands-on practice with the same question types, marking scheme and time limit they will face on exam day.

Class 4 marks an important shift in how children learn Maths under the new NCERT curriculum. With the Maths Mela textbook replacing the older Math-Magic series, many parents and teachers are still getting familiar with the new chapter names, the revised exam pattern and what exactly gets tested in the half-yearly exam. This guide – along with 10 free downloadable sample papers – is designed to remove that confusion completely.

At a glance:

  • Class: 4
  • Subject: Mathematics (Maths Mela)
  • Exam: Half-Yearly / Term 1, Session 2026โ€“27
  • Chapters covered: 1 to 7
  • Total sample papers: 10 (5 English Medium + 5 Hindi Medium)
  • Duration: 2 hours
  • Maximum marks: 50
  • Sections: A, B and C

Why Class 4 Students Should Practise These Half-Yearly Sample Papers

A sample paper does more than test what a child has memorised – it tells you exactly how ready they are for the real exam. Solving these papers before the half-yearly exam helps in several ways:

  • Builds familiarity with the exact question format – MCQs, fill-in-the-blanks, match-the-following, true/false and short and long answers – instead of seeing them for the first time in the exam hall.
  • Improves time management, since each paper is designed for the same 2-hour duration as the actual exam.
  • Highlights weak chapters early, giving enough time to revise before the real exam instead of discovering gaps too late.
  • Builds exam temperament, especially for questions that ask students to “show your working” or draw a figure – a skill many Class 4 children are practising for the first time.
  • Reduces exam anxiety, because a child who has already solved 4โ€“5 similar papers walks into the exam hall far more confidently.
  • Supports both mediums of instruction, so children in Hindi-medium schools get the same quality of practice as those in English-medium schools.

About the Class 4 Maths Mela Textbook and Term 1 Syllabus

Under the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and the National Curriculum Framework (NCF) 2023, NCERT has introduced a completely redesigned Maths textbook for Class 4 Math Mela (Hindi Medium: เค—เคฃเคฟเคค เคฎเฅ‡เคฒเคพ / Ganit Mela). It replaces the earlier Math-Magic series and is now the prescribed textbook in CBSE and other NCERT-affiliated schools for the 2026โ€“27 session.

The complete book has 14 chapters, split across two terms:

  • Term 1 (Aprilโ€“September): Chapters 1 to 7 – this is the half-yearly/mid-term exam portion.
  • Term 2 (Octoberโ€“March): Chapters 8 to 14 – covered in the annual exam.

All 10 sample papers discussed in this post are based strictly on the Term 1 portion (Chapters 1โ€“7), matching what schools actually test in the half-yearly exam.

Chapters 1 to 7: What’s Included in the Half-Yearly Portion

Here is exactly what falls under the half-yearly syllabus, with chapter names in both mediums:

English MediumHindi MediumKey Topics
1. Shapes Around Us1. เคนเคฎเคพเคฐเฅ‡ เค†เคธ-เคชเคพเคธ เค•เฅ€ เค†เค•เฅƒเคคเคฟเคฏเคพเค2D & 3D shapes, lines, angles, symmetry, parts of a circle
2. Hide and Seek2. เคฒเฅเค•เคพ-เค›เคฟเคชเฅ€Top, front & side views; maps and directions; mirror images
3. Patterns Around Us3. เคนเคฎเคพเคฐเฅ‡ เคšเคพเคฐเฅ‹เค‚ เค“เคฐ เคชเฅˆเคŸเคฐเฅเคจNumber patterns, odd and even numbers
4. Thousands Around Us4. เคนเคฎเคพเคฐเฅ‡ เค†เคธ-เคชเคพเคธ เคนเคœเคผเคพเคฐLarge numbers, place value, comparing & ordering numbers, number line
5. Sharing and Measuring5. เคฌเคพเคเคŸเคจเคพ เค”เคฐ เคฎเคพเคชเคจเคพUnit fractions (ยฝ, โ…“, ยผ, โ…•), equal sharing, simple division
6. Measuring Length6. เคฒเค‚เคฌเคพเคˆ เคฎเคพเคชเคจMeasuring length, converting metres to centimetres, perimeter
7. The Cleanest Village 7. เคธเฅเคตเคšเฅเค›เคคเคฎ เค—เคพเคเคตWord problems using all four operations, numbers up to 1,000

This table alone is a useful revision checklist – if your child can confidently explain each topic in the right-hand column, they are on track for the exam.




Exam Pattern and Marking Scheme

Every one of the 10 sample papers follows the identical official blueprint, so once a student understands this pattern, it applies to all of them.
General Instructions (same across all papers):

  1. All questions are compulsory unless an internal choice (“OR”) is given.
  2. The paper is divided into three sections – Section A, Section B and Section C.
  3. Wherever “OR” is given, attempt only one of the two alternatives.
  4. Marks for each question are indicated alongside it; students must draw neat figures and show their working.

Marks Distribution:

Question No.Question TypeMarks
1MCQs based on a data table8
2MCQs based on figures/angles8
3Very short answers – patterns, odd/even numbers4
4Fill in the blanks / Match the following – measurement5
5True or False – fractions5
6Short answer word problem – addition3
7Short answer with drawing – sharing & fractions3
8Very short answers – views of objects4
9Long answer – length, number line/perimeter5
10Long answer – data table & word problems5
Total–50

Section A (Question 1-3) carries 20 marks, Section B (Question 4 and 5) carries 10 marks and Section C (Question 6-10) carries the remaining 20 marks – with the heavier, application-based questions concentrated in Section C.

All 10 papers are built on this same pattern but use different numbers, figures and word problems, so students effectively get 10 independent “mock tests” for revision.

Tip: Don’t attempt all 10 papers back-to-back in one sitting. Spread them across 10 days, revising the relevant chapter before each paper.




How to Use These Sample Papers Effectively

  1. Revise the chapter first. Go through the relevant Maths Mela chapter and class notes before opening a sample paper.
  2. Time yourself strictly. Attempt each paper in one sitting of exactly 2 hours, without a phone, TV or other distractions nearby.
  3. Show every step. Marks in Section C are awarded for working, not just the final answer – make this a habit now.
  4. Use a pencil, scale and eraser for angles, dot-grid shapes and number lines, exactly as required in the exam.
  5. Self-check afterwards using the Maths Mela textbook or ask a parent or teacher to go through the tricky questions together.
  6. Keep a mistake log. Write down every question a child gets wrong and revisit only those topics before the next paper.
  7. Alternate mediums if useful. A Hindi-medium student who is comfortable with English can try one English paper too and vice versa – the concepts are identical either way.

Chapter-Wise Quick Revision Tips

  • Shapes Around Us: Practise spotting acute, obtuse and right angles using the corner of a notebook as a quick right-angle checker.
  • Hide and Seek: Pick up any household object (cup, box, chair) and practise sketching its top, front and side views.
  • Patterns Around Us: Do a 2-minute daily drill of extending number patterns and calling out odd/even numbers.
  • Thousands Around Us: Practise reading and writing 4โ€“5 digit numbers aloud and comparing pairs of numbers digit by digit.
  • Sharing and Measuring: Fold paper strips into halves, thirds and quarters to make fractions visual rather than abstract.
  • Measuring Length: Memorise that 1 m = 100 cm and practise converting a few lengths every day until it becomes automatic.
  • The Cleanest Village: Mix all four operations into one word problem a day so students get comfortable choosing the right operation on their own.

Using NCERT Textbook Solutions, practising with real, exam-pattern sample papers is one of the simplest ways to help a Class 4 student walk into the half-yearly exam with confidence. These 10 papers – 5 English Medium and 5 Hindi Medium – cover every topic from Chapters 1 to 7 of Maths Mela in the exact format the school exam will follow. Download the papers, work through them one at a time and use the chapter-wise tips above to turn weak areas into strong ones well before exam day.
