Math

Math on the Green Mountaineer Team happens in the Core Academic block that starts at 9:15 and concludes at 12:15. During this time third and fourth graders will attend different classes.

Third graders will be split into two heterogeneous groups for Math and Language Arts and recive instruction from either Mrs. Wheeler or Mrs. C Smith.  Fourth graders will be split into two heterogeneous groups, and they will receive Math instruction with Mr. Lodge and Language Arts instruction with Mrs. MJ Smith.

In third and fourth grade the intensive mathematical focus is on multiplicative reasoning.  In third grade, the essential focus is on multiplication while in fourth grade this focus is expanded to include the inverse relationship between multiplication and division. In addition, fractional understanding is a major focus in grade 4.

For math class we use the LNSU district curriculum and the Common Core as a basis for instruction.
