Common Core Math - Grade 4

Lesson Plan

Fluently add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm

Goals / Objectives

Add multi-digit whole numbers (up to 1,000,000) using the standard algorithm, including problems that require regrouping (carrying) across multiple place values

Subtract multi-digit whole numbers (up to 1,000,000) using the standard algorithm, including problems that require regrouping (borrowing) across multiple place values

Explain why the standard algorithm works by connecting each step to place value -- each column adds or subtracts units of the same size, and regrouping trades 10 of one unit for 1 of the next larger unit

Handle subtraction from numbers containing zeros that require regrouping across multiple columns (e.g., 5,000 - 1,237)

Check the reasonableness of addition and subtraction results using estimation and by using the inverse operation (adding to check subtraction)
