When I did this for the 4th grade fractions unit (as well as the 5th grade unit), I broke the skills into manageable “I Can” Statements that could be both used by the teacher to plan instruction but also by the students. To help, I am sharing a 4th grade fractions checklist of skills introduced, mastered, or built on in 4th grade, including a free assessment.Ĭlick here to see the 5th grade fractions checklist and list of skills/I Can Statements.īefore I dive into to any major teaching unit, I spend some time breaking down the standards and analyzing any embedded skills. Unfortunately, many 4th grade fraction skills can be taught with tricks that don’t build necessarily conceptual understanding, which can really hurt students in later grades. In my opinion, the 4th grade fraction skills are pivotal for students’ success in later grades with more advanced fraction skills. ![]()
