Grade 4 Mathematics: Place Value, Operations, and Fractions

Grade 4 · 348 pages · 74 lessons · PDF, print at home

A full-year grade 4 mathematics course built on CCSS. Students extend place value to one million, build fluency with multi-digit addition, subtraction, multiplication, and long division, and reason about multiplicative comparison. The year moves into fraction equivalence, addition and subtraction of like-denominator fractions, and decimal notation for tenths and hundredths, then closes with measurement conversion, angle measurement, and geometric classification. Every new idea is introduced with a picture, array, area model, number line, or fraction bar, before any symbol is attached to it. The course is designed for a home setting where a parent checks finished work but does not teach the lesson.
