4th Grade Math: Semester 2

This is Part 2 of 4th grade Math. In this class, the students will be learning the standards covered in 4th grade Math. In semester 2 this class will cover adding and subtracting fractions, customary and metric measurements, elapsed time, data, plane figures, perimeter, area, and volume.  This is a small group 4th grade Math class that will meet once a week for 14 weeks. Students should have completed 3rd grade Math or have tested on the 4th grade level. Students in this class should know their multiplication facts.

Class will begin each day with a review of the multiplication facts and a check of any homework that was assigned the previous day. Lessons will be taught using the Zoom whiteboard and prepared slides. During the lessons I will demonstrate the standard on the whiteboard using the I do, we do, you do strategy. The students will be expected to copy all notes from the whiteboard in order for them to be able to participate in class discussion and solving of any problems. The students will be given many opportunities to show understanding of the standard by answering questions and solving problems on the whiteboard. 

Each week there will be a review of what was learned the previous week. This is to ensure that the students are understanding the standard. Any skill that the students are struggling with during class will be retaught the next class period. The last day will be reserved for review and assessment.
