This term in Math, Grade 3 students will focus on counting and place value, addition and subtraction, time, and multiplication and division. Grade 4 students will work on strengthening their skills in addition and subtraction, fractions, time, and multiplication and division. They will also participate in daily number fluency exercises to improve their quick recall of math facts and daily retrieval to reinforce their understanding of key concepts.

In Numeracy, students will be learning to:

Year 3:

identify, explain and use the properties of odd and even numbers
recognise, represent and order natural numbers using naming and writing conventions for numerals beyond 10 000
extend and apply knowledge of addition and subtraction facts to 20 to develop efficient mental strategies for computation with larger numbers without a calculator
recognise and explain the connection between addition and subtraction as inverse operations, apply to partition numbers and find unknown values in number sentences
recognise and use the relationship between formal units of time, including days, hours, minutes and seconds, to estimate and compare the duration of events
multiply and divide one- and two-digit numbers, representing problems using number sentences, diagrams and arrays, and using a variety of calculation strategies
recall and demonstrate proficiency with multiplication facts for 3, 4, 5 and 10; extend and apply facts to develop the related division facts

Year 4:

develop efficient mental and written strategies and use appropriate digital tools for solving problems involving addition and subtraction, and multiplication and division where there is no remainder
choose and use estimation and rounding to check and explain the reasonableness of calculations, including the results of financial transactions
count by multiples of quarters, halves and thirds, including mixed numerals; locate and represent these fractions as numbers on number lines
solve problems involving the duration of time including situations involving ‘am’ and ‘pm’ and conversions between units of time
recall and demonstrate proficiency with multiplication facts up to 10 × 10 and related division facts, and explain the patterns in these; extend and apply facts to develop efficient mental and written strategies for computation with larger numbers without a calculator
solve problems involving multiplying or dividing natural numbers by multiples and powers of 10 without a calculator, using the multiplicative relationship between the place value of digits
