4.N.9
Describe and represent decimals (tenths and hundredths), concretely, pictorially, and symbolically.
4.N.10
Relate decimals to fractions (to hundredths).
4.N.11

4.N.11
Demonstrate an understanding of addition and subtraction of decimals (limited to hundredths) by n estimating sums and differences to solve problems.

Key ideas

  1. We read four-digit numbers without 'and': 5321 is 'five thousand three hundred twenty-one.'.

  2. We can break numbers by place value and add or subtract the parts.

  3. Skip-count from a known fact: for 6 x 3, think 5 x 3 = 15, then 15 + 3 = 18.

  4. A fraction names equal parts of a whole or part of a set.

  5. We write numbers with a space, not a comma: 10 000.

Watch out for

  • Adding 'and' when reading a whole number.
  • Losing place value when combining parts.
  • Skip-counting the wrong number of groups.

Unit 2 · 7 skills

Patterns and Relations

Patterns in Tables and Charts

Diagrams and Equations

The official wording · 7 outcomes
4.PR.1
Identify and describe patterns found in tables and charts, including a multiplication chart.
4.PR.2
Reproduce a pattern shown in a table or chart using concrete materials.
4.PR.3
Represent and describe patterns and relationships using charts and tables to solve problems.
4.PR.4
Identify and explain mathematical relationships using charts and diagrams to solve problems.
4.PR.4
Identify and explain mathematical relationships using charts and diagrams to solve problems.
4.PR.5
Express a problem as an equation in which a symbol is used to represent an unknown number.
4.PR.6
Solve one-step equations involving a symbol to represent an unknown number.

Key ideas

  1. Tables and charts have patterns going across, down, and diagonally.

  2. A Carroll diagram sorts items by whether they have or don't have two attributes.

  3. A multiplication chart shows many number patterns.

  4. Each square holds items matching a specific yes/no combination.

  5. A pattern in a table can be shown with concrete materials.

Watch out for

  • Looking at only one direction for patterns.
  • Putting an item in the wrong square.
  • Missing an error hidden in the pattern.

Unit 3 · 8 skills

Shape and Space

Time and Calendar

Area, Prisms, and Symmetry

The official wording · 8 outcomes
4.SS.1
Read and record time using digital and analog clocks, including 24-hour clocks.
4.SS.2
Read and record calendar dates in a variety of formats.
4.SS.3
Demonstrate an understanding of area of regular and irregular 2-D shapes by � recognizing that area is measured in square units � selecting and justifying referents for the units cm2 or m2
4.SS.3
Demonstrate an understanding of area of regular and irregular 2-D shapes by � estimating area by using referents for cm2 or m2 � determining and recording area (cm2 or m2) � constructing different rectangles for a given area (cm2 or m2) in order to demonstrate that many different rectangles may have the same area
4.SS.4
Solve problems involving 2-D shapes and 3-D objects.
4.SS.5
Describe and construct rectangular and triangular prisms.
4.SS.6
Demonstrate an understanding of line symmetry by � identifying symmetrical 2-D shapes
4.SS.6
Demonstrate an understanding of line symmetry by � creating symmetrical 2-D shapes � drawing one or more lines of symmetry in a 2-D shape

Key ideas

  1. There are 24 hours in a day; a 24-hour clock counts them all.

  2. Area is the surface a shape covers, measured in square units.

  3. AM is morning and PM is afternoon and evening.

  4. A square is the most efficient unit for measuring area.

  5. Dates can be written as yyyy/mm/dd, dd/mm/yyyy, or 'March 21, 2006.'.

Watch out for

  • Confusing 24-hour times, like reading 14:00 as 4 o'clock.
  • Measuring area with lengths instead of square units.
  • Mixing up AM and PM.

Unit 4 · 2 skills

Statistics and Probability

Graphs with Many-to-One Correspondence

The official wording · 2 outcomes
4.SP.1
Demonstrate an understanding of many-to-one correspondence.
4.SP.2
Construct and interpret pictographs and bar graphs involving many-to-one correspondence to draw conclusions.

Key ideas

  1. Many-to-one correspondence means one symbol or interval stands for several items.

  2. It is useful when the amounts are too large for one-to-one.

  3. A pictograph legend tells how many each symbol stands for.

  4. A bar graph interval tells how much each step on the axis represents.

Watch out for

  • Reading each symbol as one item in a many-to-one graph.
  • Not noticing the key that tells the correspondence.
  • Ignoring the legend or interval when reading.
