In this course, Math Marvels work to master fundamental skills. These skills are essential for more advanced math skills in 4th grade. There are 30 session courses. In each course, 4th graders will have a video lesson and a pdf of Guided Notes. Use these notes to follow along with the video session. Watching a video is helpful but to be successful in any skill requires practice. At the end of the Guided Notes, there are practice problems. We call them Purposeful Practice. Use the video and notes to support you on any practice problem.
In this course, Math Marvels will work with large numbers, whole numbers to the hundred millions and work on basic math skills they will need throughout 4th Grade. These skills are the foundation to multiplication, division and decimal values which lots of 4th graders struggle with. Math Marvels begin this course building knowledge of the pattern of “times ten” on the place value chart to understand and name numbers in the millions! 4th Graders practice representing numbers in new and interesting ways, reinforcing their understanding of place value. As students get stronger, they will build math skills with rounding, different strategies to add and subtract quickly and with more accuracy and begin exploring patterns that will help 4th graders become fluent with multiplication and division.
