In this level your child is working mostly on his own. LEVEL 4 uses word problems to expand the understanding of addition and subtraction (0 - 9,999), and teaches multiplication of 2 and 3 digit numbers and division. Fractions are expanded from Level 3 to include whether two fractons are equal-not equal, and less than-greater than. Algebra is further developed. The Student Book offers opportunities to apply and practice the concepts and skills covered in the lessons from Level 4.

Concepts and Skills through Word Problems

While turning more attention to the teaching of computations skills, Level 4 continues the development of mathematical reasoning through word problems and algebraic reasoning:

PLACE VALUE (0 - 999,999)

ADDITION and SUBTRACTION (with borrowing and carrying with numbers 0 - 999,999)

MULTIPLICATION and DIVISION with 2 - and 3 - digit numbers

COMPARING COMMON FRACTIONS for EQUAL and NOT EQUAL and LESS THAN and GREATER THAN
