Fourth-Grade Power Standards
Math
Students will:
Numbers and Operations:

Geometry and Measurement:
5. Use properties of angles or side to identify, describe, or distinguish among triangles, squares, rectangles, rhombi, trapezoids, hexagons, or octagons and classify angles relative to 90 degrees. M(G&M)-4-1
6. Identify, compare, and describe three-dimensional shapes by using properties or attributes (shape of base and number of faces.) M(G&M)-4-3
7. Demonstrate conceptual understanding of congruency by matching congruent figures using reflections, translations, or rotations (flips, slides, or turns), or as the result of composing or decomposing shapes using models or explanations. M(G&M)-4-4
8. Demonstrate understanding of perimeter and area of polygons, both regular and irregular with the answer being expressed in appropriate units of measurement. M(G&M)-4-6
9. Measure and use units of measurement consistently and make conversions within systems when solving problems (standard and metric.) M(G&M)-4-7
Functions and Algebra:
10. Identify and extend a variety of patterns and write a rule in words or symbols to find the next case. M (F&A)-4-1
11. Demonstrate an understanding of algebraic expressions by using variables (letters or numbers) to represent unknown quantities and by writing equivalent algebraic expressions involving any one of the four operations. M(F&A)4-3, 4-4
Data, Statistics, and Probability:
12. Interpret a given representation (bar graphs, line
graphs, pictographs, circle graphs, tally charts, and tables) to answer
questions about the data or to justify conclusions, to make predictions, or to
solve problems. M(DSP 4-1)
