News From the Math Teacher


  • Math - We have been working on Unit 1 Solving Multiplication and Division Word Problems.  This unit covers comparison and combination problems, interpreting bar graphs, writing situation and solution equations and identifying prime and composite numbers.  As part of our math lesson, we will be completing a white class activity sheet together.  A blue worksheet will be sent home as homework.   

  • Fourth grade students are required to pass 100 fact tests in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division in 5 minutes or less with 95% accuracy by the end of the year.  Next week, your child will bring home four tests that were taken during the first 2 weeks of school.  Please practice your math facts nightly until they are able to pass all fact tests.
