4th Grade Math Tutoring
Course
Our tutoring and learning center offers three types of math programs designed for students
attending 4th grade.
-
Individual tutoring (one-on-one tutoring).
-
Small group tutoring. Our regular small group tutoring programs (2 - 5 students)
are one hour long and held throughout the academic year from September to June. They provide an
excellent combination of individualized instruction with one of our math tutors and the benefits of collaborative
study with others. Students may bring the homework assigned by their respective teachers to
their learning center classes and our tutors will help them with their specific assignments.
In addition, our math tutors can cover the missed skills and provide additional instruction on
challenging material in our own classes. Students enroll in our small group math tutoring
programs by completing an application and returning it to the Columbia Academy tutoring and
learning center. Enrollment is open throughout the year. A monthly commitment is required.
-
Classroom math program. The entire classroom math program is divided into three
consecutive sessions and covers the following topics:
-
Multiplicative reasoning
-
Fraction equivalence
-
Computational fluency with multi-digit multiplication and division, fractions
-
Algebraic thinking
-
Classifying geometric figures based on their properties
-
Measurement
-
Data analysis and probability
Upon completion of this course students will be able to:
-
Use the four operations with whole numbers to solve problems
-
Gain familiarity with factors and multiples
-
Generate and analyze patterns
-
Generalize place value understanding for multi-digit whole numbers
-
Use place value understanding and properties of operations to perform multi-digit arithmetic
-
Extend understanding of fraction equivalence and ordering
-
Build fractions from unit fractions by applying and extending previous understandings of operations on
whole numbers
-
Understand decimal notation for fractions, and compare decimal fractions
-
Solve problems involving measurement and conversion of measurements from a larger unit to a smaller
unit
-
Represent and interpret data
-
Geometric measurement: understand concepts of angle and measure angles
-
Draw and identify lines and angles, and classify shapes by properties of their lines and angles
Each session is 12 weeks long. The class meets once a week for one hour. Separate registration
for each session ensures that the session you have chosen best meets your child's needs and it will not interfere
with his/her other after-school activities during the year. Please refer to the Schedule page for specific dates
when the sessions begin and end.
