Grade 4 - Number Sense and Numeration

Standard 4.NSN.4 - Understand and calculate the length using the scale factor.

Included Skills:

Proportional Relationships
• describe relationships that involve simple whole-number multiplication (e.g., "If you have 2 marbles and I have 6 marbles, I can say that I have three times the number of marbles you have.");
• determine and explain, through investigation, the relationship between fractions (i.e., halves, fifths, tenths) and decimals to tenths, using a variety of tools (e.g., concrete materials, drawings, calculators) and strategies (e.g., decompose 2/5 into 4/10 by dividing each fifth into two equal parts to show that 2/5 can be represented as 0.4);
• demonstrate an understanding of simple multiplicative relationships involving unit rates, through investigation using concrete materials and drawings (e.g., scale drawings in which 1 cm represents 2 m) (Sample problem: If 1 book costs $4, how do you determine the cost of 2 books?... 3 books?... 4 books?).
