India · CBSE Learning Outcomes
Class 4 Mathematics
A comprehensive exploration of fourth grade mathematics focusing on place value, fractional reasoning, and spatial awareness. Students develop fluency in multi-digit operations while applying mathematical logic to real world measurement and data scenarios.
The World of Large Numbers
Students extend their understanding of the base ten system to include numbers up to five digits and explore the relative magnitude of numbers.
Understanding how the position of a digit determines its value and identifying patterns in the decimal system.
Developing strategies to approximate values for quick mental calculations and checking for reasonableness.
Comparing the Hindu-Arabic system with Roman numerals to understand different ways of representing quantity.
Operational Fluency
Mastering multi-digit addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division through conceptual understanding and efficient algorithms.
Moving beyond rote memorization to understand multiplication as scaling and area models.
Exploring division as fair sharing and repeated subtraction, with a focus on interpreting remainders.
Identifying the building blocks of numbers and finding commonalities between different values.
Parts of a Whole: Fractions
Investigating fractional parts, equivalent fractions, and basic operations with like denominators.
Using area models and number lines to represent parts of a whole or parts of a set.
Discovering why different fractions can represent the same amount and developing methods to compare them.
Combining and separating fractional parts with common denominators.
Shapes, Symmetry and Space
Exploring two dimensional shapes, angles, and the concept of symmetry in the environment.
Identifying angles as geometric figures formed by two rays and classifying them by size.
Recognizing line symmetry in figures and creating symmetrical designs.
Understanding the unique properties of circles, including the center, radius, and diameter.
Measuring the World
Applying units of measure to length, weight, capacity, and time to solve practical problems.
Mastering metric units and converting between larger and smaller units.
Calculating the distance around a shape and the space covered by a shape.
Reading clocks, calculating elapsed time, and understanding calendar patterns.
Data and Logic
Collecting, organizing, and interpreting data to make informed decisions and identify trends.
Learning how to gather information through tallies and surveys systematically.
Identifying growing patterns and using logical steps to solve puzzles.
