Importance of learning math in 4th grade

Since math forms the basis for many other subjects — like science, engineering, and technology — it's of course essential that kids develop strong math skills from a young age as it makes them more likely to succeed in other courses in the future.

Benefits of learning 4th grade math

Learning math in 4th grade has many benefits. It helps students:

  • Develop problem-solving, logical reasoning, and critical-thinking skills
  • Prepare for more complex mathematical concepts in higher grades
  • Understand how math is used in real-life situations

By ensuring that students have a solid understanding of math concepts, teachers can help set them up for future success

Key topics covered in 4th grade math

In this grade, math starts to become more complex and challenging. Generally, it's the year when many students transition from basic arithmetic to more complex mathematical concepts. Building on concepts learned in earlier grades, students will tackle topics like multi-digit multiplication, fractions, decimals, and geometry

Multiplication and division

By this grade, students generally have a basic understanding of multiplication and division and are ready to move on to learning how to multiply and divide multi-digit numbers. For multiplication, students will learn how to multiply four-digit numbers by one-digit numbers and multiply two two-digit numbers together. For division, students will learn how to divide numbers of up to four digits, many of which will involve remainders.

Fractions

Fourth graders generally have a basic understanding of fractions, but now they’ll learn how to learn how to convert fractions to decimals, and how to add and subtract fractions with the same denominator, different denominators, or different numerators. Students might also learn how to add and subtract mixed numbers.

Decimals

In 4th grade, students learn about decimals and how they relate to fractions and whole numbers. They learn how to read, write, and compare decimals to whole numbers and fractions. They'll also learn to read and write decimals up to the hundredth place.

Geometry

Fourth grade math introduces students to basic geometry concepts. They learn about points, lines, angles, and shapes. They also learn how to calculate the perimeter and area of shapes.

Measurement

Students learn about different units of measurement and how to convert between them.

Data analysis

Fourth-grade math introduces students to basic data analysis concepts. They learn how to collect and organize data, create graphs and charts, and interpret the results.

How to find math resources for 4th grade

Educators can save time preparing math lessons with resources created by experienced teachers. Simply search the TPT marketplace for "4th grade math," and filter by grade level, price, and/or resource type to find print and digital materials that've been proven to work in classrooms around the country.
