Grade 3, Module 4

Core Focus
Reading and writing four-digit numbers
Locating four-digit numbers on a number line, working with place value, comparing,
and ordering
Reviewing fraction concepts using the area model
Writing fractions as words, common fractions, and relating fraction words and symbols
Numbers in Base-Ten
Once base-10 place value is understood for numbers up to several hundreds,
students know just about everything necessary to work with large numbers.
In this module, students extend their understanding of one-, two-, and three-digit
numbers to four-digit numbers.

4.5

Read house numbers,


videogame scores or highway
signs to practice saying threeand four-digit numbers.
Reinforce place-value
language by asking, How
many thousands, hundreds,
tens, and ones?

Working with Place Value of Four-Digit Numbers

How many blocks are in each


place of this number picture?

When possible, demonstrate


how amounts are written out
in words.

Write the number on this expander.


How do you read
the number?

In this lesson, students use base-10 blocks and numeral expanders to increase
or decrease numbers by 10 or 100.

Essential base-10 concepts are practiced by locating numbers on a number line;


comparing and ordering numbers; and working with place value using mathematical
language: thousands, hundreds, tens and ones.

Ideas for Home

If four-digit numbers seem


easy for your child, nd larger
numbers millions, billions, or
even trillions e.g. by looking
for and reading how many
hits a website has received.
Glossary
A place-value chart is used to
record large quantities in their
place values.

Comparing and Ordering Four-Digit Numbers

compare and order four-digit numbers.

Fractions
Fractions are often challenging for students, but they are very important in daily life
and they provide essential understanding for later work with decimals, algebra, and
other advanced mathematics.
In Grades K2, students explored their understanding of one-half, one-third, and
one-fourth in sets of objects and in geometric shapes. This module includes a
fraction review using sets of objects.

4.8

Ideas for Home


Notice fractions in
kitchen measures, e.g.
1
Compare a 2 cup our to a

whole cup; 41 tablespoon to


1 tablespoon, etc.

Look at an analog clock


together and notice the
half, (30 minutes), quarter
(15 minutes), and third
(20 minutes).

Reviewing Fractions

Luis borrowed 6 books from the library.


One-half of them were adventure stories.
What does one-half mean?
How many of the books were adventure stories?

Glossary

One-third of the books were about


science experiments.
What does one-third mean?
How many of the books were about
science experiments?

The bottom number of a


fraction is the denominator,
the total number of equal
parts in the whole.

A fraction is a number that


describes an amount that has
been split into equal parts.

What special name is used for numbers


like one-half and one-third?

In this lesson, students review the naming of fractions.

As in Grades 1 and 2, the area model continues to represent the fractions


by naming the relationship between the shaded area and the total area.

The top number is the


numerator, the count of equal
parts considered.

The dark gray shows 4 parts


out of 6 equal parts.

Writing Common Fractions

Trina is covering a rectangle


with pattern blocks.

The same fractional amount


can look dierent. Ask your
child why all of the shaded
areas below equal . (In an
area model, the equal shaded
portions of the region count
as the fractional amount,
not the number of pieces.

What fraction of the rectangle has she covered so far?


Write a numeral to show the number
of parts that are covered and a numeral
to show the number of equal parts.

parts of
equal parts

The numeral on the top is called the numerator.


The numeral on the bottom is called the denominator.

In this lesson, students write common fractions using numbers.Three shaded


parts out of eight equal parts is written 3 .

ORIGO Education.

In Grade 3, fraction models extend beyond area models to number lines and are
described using numeric symbols. The number line will be introduced to represent
relative position of fractions in future modules.
