Welcome to Fourth Grade!
Fourth grade takes topics introduced in third grade and increases the expectations. Students are expected to use their number sense to solve problems using a variety of strategies, not just memorize steps. The major concepts covered at this grade level include multiplying and dividing larger numbers, learning about factors and multiples, mastering adding and subtracting up to the millions, geometry (including measuring angles), and place value to the millions. The other main topic in fourth grade is fractions, and students will be expected to add, subtract, and even multiply a fraction by a whole number.
