Elementary Arithmetic Series: Book 4

This non-consumable resource contains a full year of math for students in grade 4.  It could also be used as excellent review lessons for older students who need to solidify their grasp of multiplication, division, fractions, and weights and measures. 

The lessons follow Charlotte Mason's philosophy and methods to nurture mathematical thinking. They are mainly oral and are carefully graduated, with your child answering small word problems within his understanding (no reading required). He works out the problems in a hands-on way using a variety of common, everyday objects. A gridded notebook (purchased separatey) is used as the student’s math notebook, in which he records the math concepts he has discovered. Writing is used sparingly, so the effort of handwriting does not overshadow the math concept being grasped.

Short, lively lessons reinforce a habit of concentrated attention while not overtaxing the child’s ability to sit still. Book 4 also guides you in helping your child begin independent math lessons. Each day’s work goes no longer than 30 minutes, with 25 minutes focused on the newest math concept and review, and the remaining 5 for mental math.

The following areas are covered:

  • addition and subtraction up to 1,000,000, as well as multiplication and division with larger numbers;
  • fractions; introduce decimals; and
  • both metric and US standard measures, including measures of area, cubic measure, and volume.
