Get help with Mathematics 4
Most tutoring makes your child sit through material your child already knows. MapleMind flips that: pick the exact skill that's causing trouble — any of the 18 below — and the tutor teaches just that one, step by step, as many times as it takes. Ask questions in plain words, any time of day, in English, French, or 12 other languages.
The official British Columbia Mathematics 4 curriculum
British Columbia defines Mathematics 4 by strands and outcomes. MapleMind teaches the same curriculum reorganized for one-skill-at-a-time tutoring — the table shows exactly where every official strand lands, and the ministry's own wording is quoted under each unit below.

How MapleMind teaches Mathematics 4 — every unit, lesson, and skill
Every skill below runs as a short session: a plain-words lesson, a worked example, solving it together, then a five-question skill check that earns up to three stars. Guided Mode keeps it teaching instead of answer-handing — turning it off needs a parent's password.
Unit 1NumberOfficial strand · Number
Big Idea: numbers describe quantities that can be decomposed into parts, and decimals and fractions are types of numbers that can represent quantities. Reading and building numbers to 10 000, decimals to hundredths, and comparing fractions.
Numbers to 10 000
- Understanding numbers to 10 0004.C.1 — Read, write, build, and compare numbers up to 10 000, understanding what each digit is worth by its place — thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones.
Decimals to Hundredths
- What decimals to hundredths mean4.C.2 — Read, write, and model decimal numbers to hundredths (like 3.45), understanding tenths and hundredths as parts of a whole, and connect decimals to money and grids.
Ordering and Comparing Fractions
- Which fraction is bigger?4.C.3 — Order and compare fractions with the same or different denominators using models, number lines, and benchmarks like 0, one-half, and 1.

Unit 2Computational FluencyOfficial strand · Computational Fluency
Big Idea: development of computational fluency in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of numbers requires a strong sense of numbers. Adding and subtracting larger numbers and decimals, and building multiplication and division fluency.
Adding and Subtracting to 10 000
- Adding and subtracting big numbers4.C.4 — Add and subtract whole numbers up to 10 000 using strategies like regrouping, breaking numbers apart, and estimating to check the answer makes sense.
Multiplying and Dividing Bigger Numbers

Quick Facts: Adding and Subtracting to 20
- Fast and sure with facts to 204.C.7 — Build speed and confidence recalling addition and subtraction facts to 20, using known facts and patterns rather than counting one by one.
Quick Strategies: Multiplying and Dividing to 100
- Strategies for facts to 1004.C.8 — Use introductory strategies (skip-counting, doubling, arrays, known facts) to work out multiplication and division facts to 100.

Unit 3Patterns and AlgebraOfficial strand · Patterning
Big Idea: patterns and relationships can be represented, extended, and generalized in many ways. Spotting increasing and decreasing patterns in tables, describing the relationship between quantities, and solving one-step equations.
Growing and Shrinking Patterns
- Reading patterns in tables and charts4.C.9 — Identify, extend, and describe increasing and decreasing patterns shown in tables and charts, explaining the rule that connects one term to the next.
How Quantities Are Related
- Connecting two changing quantities4.C.10 — Explore and describe algebraic relationships among quantities, such as how the total changes as the number of groups changes, using words, tables, or diagrams.
Solving One-Step Equations
- Finding the missing number4.C.11 — Solve one-step equations with an unknown number using addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division, such as finding the missing number in 8 + ? = 15.
The official wording — 3 outcomes in this unit
- 4.C.9

- 4.C.10

Unit 4MeasurementOfficial strand · Measurement
Big Idea: we can describe, measure, and compare spatial relationships. Telling time on analog and digital clocks in 12- and 24-hour format, and finding the perimeter of shapes.
Telling Time, 12-Hour and 24-Hour
- Reading clocks both ways4.C.12 — Tell time to the minute on analog and digital clocks, and convert between 12-hour time (like 3:00 pm) and 24-hour time (like 15:00).
Perimeter of Shapes
- Measuring around a shape4.C.14 — Find the perimeter of regular and irregular shapes by measuring or adding the lengths of all the sides around the outside.

Regular and Irregular Polygons
- Sorting regular and irregular polygons4.C.13 — Identify and classify polygons as regular (all sides and all angles equal) or irregular (sides and/or angles not all equal), such as a square versus a rectangle.
Line Symmetry

Unit 6Data, Probability, and Financial LiteracyOfficial strand · Data and Probability
Big Idea: analyzing data and chance helps us compare, ask questions, and understand and predict outcomes; concrete experiences with data and probability support financial literacy.

Reading Bar Graphs and Pictographs
- When one picture stands for more than one thing4.C.16 — Read and create bar graphs and pictographs using one-to-one correspondence (one symbol represents one item) and many-to-one correspondence (one symbol represents more than one item).
