Learning Expectations
4th Grade Math
At fourth grade, students gain a deeper understanding of mathematics. They will learn more about division, as well as writing whole numbers in the millions or more. They are also more emotionally independent at this stage, and able to verbalize their thoughts and feelings. This goes hand in hand with the more complex mathematical situations in real-world problem solving that they have to learn at this stage.
