| + | |+ Curriculum Framework |
| + | ! NUMBER SENSE AND OPERATIONS |
| + | |- |
| + | ! 4.N.3 |
| + | | Demonstrate an understanding of fractions as parts of unit wholes, as parts of a collection, and as locations on the number line. |
| + | |- |
| + | ! 4.N.4 |
| + | | Select, use, and explain models to relate common fractions and mixed numbers (1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6, 1/8, 1/10, 1/12, and 11/2), find equivalent fractions, mixed numbers, and decimals, and order fractions. |
| + | |- |
| + | ! 4.N.5 |
| + | | Identify and generate equivalent forms of common decimals and fractions less than one whole (halves, quarters, fifths, and tenths). |
| + | |- |
| + | ! 4.N.6 |
| + | | Exhibit an understanding of the base ten number system by reading, naming, and writing decimals between 0 and 1 up to the hundredths. |
| + | |- |
| + | ! 4.N.9 |
| + | | Select, use, and explain the commutative, associative, and identity properties of operations on whole numbers in problem situations, e.g., 37 x 46 = 46 x 37, (5 x 7) x 2 = 5 x (7 x 2). |
| + | |- |
| + | ! 4.N.11 |
| + | | Know multiplication facts through 12 x 12 and related division facts. Use these facts to solve related multiplication problems and compute related problems, e.g., 3 x 5 is related to 30 x 50, 300 x 5, and 30 x 500. |
| + | |- |
| + | ! 4.N.12 |
| + | | Add and subtract (up to five-digit numbers) and multiply (up to three digits by two digits) accurately and efficiently. |
| + | |- |
| + | ! 4.N.14 |
| + | | Demonstrate in the classroom an understanding of and the ability to use the conventional algorithms for addition and subtraction (up to five-digit numbers), and multiplication (up to three digits by two digits). |
| + | |- |
| + | ! GEOMETRY |
| + | |- |
| + | ! 4.G.1 |
| + | | Compare and analyze attributes and other features (e.g., number of sides, faces, corners, right angles, diagonals, and symmetry) of two- and three-dimensional geometric shapes. |
| + | |- |
| + | ! 4.G.3 |
| + | | Recognize similar figures. |
| + | |- |
| + | ! 4.G.4 |
| + | | Identify angles as acute, right, or obtuse. |
| + | |- |
| + | ! 4.G.7 |
| + | | Describe and apply techniques such as reflections (flips), rotations (turns), and translations (slides) for determining if two shapes are congruent. |
| + | |- |
| + | ! 4.G.9 |
| + | | Predict and validate the results of partitioning, folding, and combining two- and three-dimensional shapes. |
| + | |- |
| + | ! MEASUREMENT |
| + | |- |
| + | ! 4.M.2 |
| + | | Carry out simple unit conversions within a system of measurement, e.g., hours to minutes, cents to dollars, yards to feet or inches, etc. |
