What your child will be learning in fourth-grade mathematics
What your child will be learning in fourth-grade mathematics
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. See the unit information below to learn more about how math will unfold across the year.

Partnering with your child's teacher
Partnering with your child's teacher
Getting to know your child's teacher is important and communication with them throughout the year will support your child's individual growth while learning mathematics. Don’t be afraid to reach out to them—you are an important part of your child’s education. Ask to see a sample of your child’s work or bring a sample with you. Ask the teacher questions like:
Is my child at the level where he/she should be at this point of the school year?
Where is my child excelling?
What do you think is giving my child the most trouble? How can I help my child improve in this area?
