This parent guide supports parents in helping their child at home with the 4th grade Math content.

This resource accompanies our Rethink 4th Grade Math course. It includes ideas for use, ways to support exceptional children, ways to extend learning, digital resources and tools, tips for supporting English Language Learners and students with visual and hearing impairments. There are also ideas for offline learning. 

This lesson is for Grades 4-5 math. At Home Learning Lessons are a partnership between the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction, PBS North Carolina, and the William and Ida Friday Institute for Educational Innovation. Each lesson contains a video instructional lesson, a PDF lesson plan with a transcript, and a PDF file of extension activities.  

In this lesson, students will determine if they have enough flour needed to bake pies for a festival. They are given the amount needed in pounds and the amount they have in ounces and then determine if they have enough flour to make the pies.

This activity focuses on the importance of using mathematics to find deals when grocery shopping.  Students will analyze data from local grocery store advertisements and determine the best deals by using multiple strategies.  This task will also require students to find and compare unit rates, which connects the fourth grade concepts of solving problems involving money and using place value understanding to do arithmetic to the sixth grade standard of determining a unit rate.  Once students find which store offers the best deal, they will create a public service announcement teaching others how to find the best deals when grocery shopping. This public service announcement is an opportunity to use precise mathematical language and construct viable arguments.  This lesson was developed by NCDPI as part of the Academically and/or Intellectually Gifted Instructional Resources Project. This lesson plan has been vetted at the state level for standards alignment, AIG focus, and content accuracy.
