4th GRADE OVERVIEW

   

    In grade four, your child will use addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division to solve word problems, including problems involving measurement of volume, mass, and time. Students will continue to build their understanding of fractions—creating equal fractions, comparing the size of fractions, adding and subtracting fractions, and multiplying fractions by whole numbers. They will also start to understand the relationship between fractions and decimals.

  The math curriculum is divided into skill areas called modules.  Modules contain anywhere between 8 and 40 lessons split into groups of related lessons called topics.
