Grade 4
Units & Goals
Grade 4 Math
In Math 4, instructional time should focus on three areas:
(1) developing understanding and fluency with multi-digit multiplication, and developing understanding of dividing to find quotients involving multi-digit dividends;
(2) developing an understanding of fraction equivalence, addition and subtraction of fractions with like denominators, and multiplication of fractions by whole numbers; and
(3) understanding that geometric figures can be analyzed and classified based on their properties, such as having parallel sides, perpendicular sides, particular angle measures, and symmetry.
Please note that while every standard/topic in the grade level has not been included in this overview, all standards should be included in instruction.
