Getting Ready for the 4th Grade Assessment Test: Help Improve Your Child’s Math and English Skills – Many parents are expressing a demand for books that will help their children succeed and excel on the fourth grade assessment tests in math and English –especially in areas where children have limited access to computers. This book will help students practice basic math concepts, i.e., number sense and applications as well as more difficult math, such as patterns, functions, and algebra. English skills will include practice in reading comprehension, writing, and vocabulary. Rubrics are included for self-evaluation.
Build a foundation and focus on what matters most for math readiness with Common Core Math 4 Today: Daily Skill Practice for fourth grade. This 96-page comprehensive supplement contains standards-aligned reproducible activities designed to focus on critical math skills and concepts that meet the Common Core State Standards. Each page includes 16 problems to be completed during a four-day period. The exercises are arranged in a continuous spiral so that concepts are repeated weekly. An assessment for the fifth day is provided for evaluating students' understanding of the math concepts practiced throughout the week. Also included are a Common Core State Standards alignment matrix and an answer key.
Our 2nd edition Michigan 4th Grade Math Test Prep for Common Core State Standards is an excellent resource to assess and manage student's understanding of concepts outlined in the Common Core State Standards Initiative. This resource is formatted into three sections: Diagnostic, Practice, and Assessment with multiple choice and open questions in each section. The material covered includes emphasis on representing and solving problems involving using operations with whole numbers to solve problems by representing multiplicative comparisons as multiplicative equations; gaining familiarity with factors and multiples using prime numbers and composite numbers; generating and analyzing patterns using numbers or shapes; understanding multi-digit whole numbers using place value and comparison operations; using place value to understand properties of operations to perform multi-digit arithmetic; understanding of fraction equivalence and ordering with fraction models and comparison operators; building fractions from unit fractions; understanding decimal notation for fractions, and comparing decimal fractions; solving problems involving measurement and conversion of measurements using system of units such as km, m, in, hr, min, sec; representing and interpreting data through shapes, line plots, fractions and/or whole numbers; understanding concepts of geometric angles and measurement of angles. These standards are covered extensively by the practice problems. This book contains over 600 practice problems aligned to each Common Core State Standard. In addition the book contains an answer key to practice problems. Paperback: 242 double-sided pages Publisher: Teachers' Treasures, Inc. Language: English
Early childhood mathematics is vitally important for young children's present and future educational success. Research demonstrates that virtually all young children have the capability to learn and become competent in mathematics. Furthermore, young children enjoy their early informal experiences with mathematics. Unfortunately, many children's potential in mathematics is not fully realized, especially those children who are economically disadvantaged. This is due, in part, to a lack of opportunities to learn mathematics in early childhood settings or through everyday experiences in the home and in their communities. Improvements in early childhood mathematics education can provide young children with the foundation for school success. Relying on a comprehensive review of the research, Mathematics Learning in Early Childhood lays out the critical areas that should be the focus of young children's early mathematics education, explores the extent to which they are currently being incorporated in early childhood settings, and identifies the changes needed to improve the quality of mathematics experiences for young children. This book serves as a call to action to improve the state of early childhood mathematics. It will be especially useful for policy makers and practitioners-those who work directly with children and their families in shaping the policies that affect the education of young children.
