Grade 4 Math Topics in Alberta

Alberta's Grade 4 math curriculum covers a wide range of foundational topics that set students up for success in later grades. StudyPug provides video lessons and practice problems for every chapter, so students always have support when they need it.

Number Sense and Place Value

Grade 4 students learn to identify the place value of digits up to hundredths, relate values of adjacent places, round numbers, and compare values using <, >, and =. They also explore decimal notation and express monetary values in cents and dollars.

Addition and Subtraction

Students use standard algorithms to add and subtract numbers and solve real-world problems including money. They also practice estimating sums and differences to check whether their answers are reasonable.

Multiplication and Division

Grade 4 covers multiplication and division facts, patterns when multiplying and dividing by 10, 100, and 1000, and multi-digit calculations using personal strategies and standard algorithms. Students also explore estimation and solve word problems.

Fractions and Decimals

Students model and compare equivalent fractions, simplify fractions, and place both fractions and decimals on a number line. They convert between fractions and decimals and develop a strong understanding of part-whole relationships.

Percentages

Students are introduced to percentages in familiar contexts and learn to represent part-whole relationships using fractions, decimals, and percentages interchangeably.

Patterns and Algebra

Grade 4 algebra introduces order of operations, writing equations to represent situations, and solving for unknown values. Students also investigate increasing and decreasing number sequences, including arithmetic and geometric patterns.

Geometry

Students describe and classify triangles, quadrilaterals, and prisms. They explore relationships between sides, angles, and faces, and verify geometric properties using transformations.

Measurement — Area and Angles

Students measure area using referents and multiplication, solve problems involving the area of rectangles, and measure angles with a protractor. They classify angles as acute, right, obtuse, or straight and relate angles to fractions of a circle.

Time

Students relate durations to fractions of a circle, express time of day using fractions, convert between units of time, and solve problems involving duration.

Data and Statistics

Students engage in statistical problem-solving, select appropriate scales, and represent data using many-to-one correspondence. They compare different graphs of the same data and interpret results to draw conclusions.
