Mathematics

= Grade 4 Everyday Mathematics =

Everyday Mathematics allows the students to revisit math concepts regularly and builds difficulty as they practice them. I will be using the workbook problems to enhance student learning one concept at a time. This means, for instance, when we learn graphing, we will find all the graphing problems at once for a deeper understanding. Then I will reinforce interpreting graphs by students using graphing websites where they will be able to create their own graphs.

//Graphing and Mapping//
//**Mapping:**// Understanding NESW, latitude and longitude, northern, eastern, southern and western hemisphere, equator and prime meridian
 * //Graphing://** reading the x-y axis, labeling and location of the parts of the graph, data collection and interpretation of bar, pie, line, and pictographs
 * //Math Text//** //**as a resource:**// locating information from text regarding countries, their latitude and longitudes, population, etc.

//Geometry//
//**2D Shapes:**// recognizing, naming and making 2D shapes, polygons, and non-polygons
 * //Tools://** rulers for measuring and straight edge, compasses for circles and creating designs, protractors for measuring angles.
 * //Perimeter and Area://** 2D shapes including rectangles and triangles
 * //3D Shapes://** recognizing and naming shapes; using height, width, length to find perimeter and area of some shapes

// Numeration //
//**Adding:**// multiple digits, carrying over, story problems, adding negative numbers
 * //Subtracting://** multiple digits, borrowing, story problems
 * //Multiplication://** single and multiple digits, carrying over, story problems
 * //Division://** single and multiple digits
 * //Large Numbers://** place values above zero, expressing large numbers with words, decimal place value
 * //Exponents://** powers of numbers, powers of 10 and zeros in the place value, basic square roots

// Measurement //
//**Metric Unit of Measurement:**// kilometers, meters, decimeters, centimeters, millimeters, grams //**Standard Unit of Measurement:**// miles, yards, feet, inches, fraction of inches, pounds, ounces

//Decimals, Fractions, and Percents//
**//Decimals://** money, place values below zero, equivalents to fractions and percents, adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing decimals
 * //Fractions://** equivalent fractions, ordering fractions, adding, subtracting and multiplying proper and improper fractions, equivalents to decimals and percents
 * //Percents://** finding equivalent decimals and fractions, using percents in pie graphs and probabilities.

//**Probability**//
Dice, cards, spinners, game outcomes, making good choices due to probabilities
