Mathematics

We are now currently studying our first unit:

Linear Measurement 

In our unit on Linear Measurement, we have asked your son / daughter to measure accurately with a ruler. This turned out to be quite a challenge for many. I explained the importance of accuracy since we are dealing with Linear Measurement. We have reviewed the concepts of Perimeter and Area. In Grade 4, I have introduced the concept of a formula to calculate both Perimeter and Area. 

We will now be moving into Metric Conversions this week.
