Computation and Estimation

Objectives:

4.5 The student will estimate whole-number sums and differences and describe the method of estimation. Students will refine estimates, using terms such as closer to, between, and a little more than.
4.6 The student will add and subtract whole numbers written in vertical and horizontal form, choosing appropriately between paper and pencil methods and calculators.
4.7 The student will find the product of two whole numbers when one factor has two digits or fewer and the other factor has three digits or fewer, using estimation and paper and pencil. For larger products (a two-digit numeral times a three-digit numeral), estimation and calculators will be used.
4.8 The student will estimate and find the quotient of two whole numbers, given a one-digit divisor.
4.9.a The student will add and subtract with fractions having like and unlike denominators of 12 or less, using concrete materials, pictorial representations, and paper and pencil;
4.9.b The student will add and subtract with decimals through thousandths, using concrete materials, pictorial representations, and paper and pencil; and
4.9.c The student will solve problems involving addition and subtraction with fractions having like and unlike denominators of 12 or less and with decimals expressed through thousandths, using various computational methods, including calculators, paper and pencil, mental computation, and estimation.

Geometry

Objectives:

4.14 The student will investigate and describe the relationships between and among points, lines, line segments, and rays.
4.15.a The student will identify and draw representations of points, lines, line segments, rays, and angles, using a straightedge or ruler
4.15.b The student will describe the path of shortest distance between two points on a flat surface.
4.16 The student will identify and draw representations of lines that illustrate intersection, parallelism, and perpendicularity.
4.17.a The student will analyze and compare the properties of two-dimensional (plane) geometric figures (circle, square, rectangle, triangle, parallelogram, and rhombus) and three- dimensional (solid) geometric figures (sphere, cube, and rectangular solid [prism])
4.17.b The student will identify congruent and noncongruent shapes
4.17.c The student will investigate congruence of plane figures after geometric transformations such as reflection (flip), translation (slide) and rotation (turn), using mirrors, paper folding, and tracing.
4.18 The student will identify the ordered pair for a point and locate the point for an ordered pair in the first quadrant of a coordinate plane.

Measurement

Objectives:

4.10.a The student will estimate and measure weight/mass, using actual measuring devices, and describe the results in U.S. Customary/metric units as appropriate, including ounces, pounds, grams, and kilograms
4.10.b The student will identify equivalent measurements between units within the U.S. Customary system (ounces and pounds) and between units within the metric system (grams and kilograms)
4.10.c The student will estimate the conversion of ounces and grams and pounds and kilograms, using approximate comparisons (1 ounce is about 28 grams, or 1 gram is about the weight of a paper clip; 1 kilogram is a little more than 2 pounds).
4.11.a The student will estimate and measure length, using actual measuring devices, and describe the results in both metric and U.S. Customary units, including part of an inch (1/2, 1/4, and 1/8), inches, feet, yards, millimeters, centimeters, and meters
4.11.b The student will identify equivalent measurements between units within the U.S. Customary system (inches and feet; feet and yards; inches and yards) and between units within the metric system (millimeters and centimeters; centimeters and meters; and millimeters and meters)
4.11.c estimate the conversion of inches and centimeters, yards and meters, and miles and kilometers, using approximate comparisons (1 inch is about 2.5 centimeters, 1 meter is a little longer than 1 yard, 1 mile is slightly farther than 1.5 kilometers)
4.12.a The student will estimate and measure liquid volume, using actual measuring devices and using metric and U.S. Customary units, including cups, pints, quarts, gallons, milliliters, and liters
4.12.b The student will identify equivalent measurements between units within the U.S. Customary system (cups, pints, quarts, and gallons) and between units within the metric system (milliliters and liters)
4.12.c The student will estimate the conversion of quarts and liters, using approximate comparisons (1 quart is a little less than 1 liter, 1 liter is a little more than 1 quart).
4.13.a The student will identify and describe situations representing the use of perimeter and area
4.13.b The student will use measuring devices to find perimeter in both standard and nonstandard units of measure.

Number and Number Sense

Objectives:

4.1.a The student will identify (orally and in writing) the place value for each digit in a whole number expressed through millions
4.1.b The student will compare two whole numbers expressed through millions, using symbols
4.1.c The student will round whole numbers expressed through millions to the nearest thousand, ten thousand, and hundred thousand
4.2.a The student will identify, model, and compare rational numbers (fractions and mixed numbers), using concrete objects and pictures;
4.2.b The student will represent equivalent fractions;
4.2.c The student will relate fractions to decimals, using concrete objects.
4.3 The student will compare the numerical value of fractions (with like and unlike denominators) having denominators of 12 or less, using concrete materials.
4.4.a The student will read, write, represent, and identify decimals expressed through thousandths;
4.4.b The student will round to the nearest whole number, tenth, and hundredth
4.4.c The student will compare the value of two decimals, using symbols, concrete materials, drawings, and calculators

Patterns, Functions, and Algebra

Objectives:

4.21 The student will recognize, create, and extend numerical and geometric patterns, using concrete materials, number lines, symbols, tables, and words.
4.22 The student will recognize and demonstrate the meaning of equality, using symbols representing numbers, operations, and relations [e.g., 3 + 5 = 5 + 3 and 15 + (35 + 16) = (15 + 35) + 16].
