NUMBER CORNER Read Introducing Grade 4 Number Corner, found in the front of the Volume 1 Number Corner Teachers Guide. Introducing Bridges in Mathematics Grade 4 Welcome to Bridges in Mathematics Bridges Activities Bridges in Mathematics, second edition, is a comprehensive K 5 mathematics curriculum that equips teachers to fully implement the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics in a manner that is rigorous, coherent, engaging, and accessible to all learners. The curriculum focuses on developing students deep understandings of mathematical concepts, proficiency with key skills, and ability to solve complex and novel problems. Bridges blends direct instruction, structured investigation, and open exploration. The program taps into the intelligence strengths of all students by presenting material that is as linguistically, visually, and kinesthetically rich as it is mathematically powerful. A Bridges classroom features a combination of whole-group, small-group, and independent activities that are problem centered. Fourth graders engage in five major kinds of activities: Problems & Investigations, Work Places, Math Forums, Problem Strings, and Assessments. Problems & Investigations Problems & Investigations are whole-group activities that also incorporate periods of independent and partner work. They often begin with a problem posed by the teacher, followed by time for students to think independently, work for a period of time, and talk in pairs before reconvening to share and compare strategies and solutions as a whole class. Work Places Work Places are engaging, developmentally appropriate math stations that offer ongoing practice with key skills. Many Work Places are partner games, but some are independent activities or more open-ended partner work. Work Places are always introduced and practiced as a whole class, after which students have opportunities to repeat the Work Place over a period of weeks. Work Places include suggestions that enable the teacher to differentiate each activity to address students needs for additional support or challenge. Math Forums Students discuss their solutions to and strategies for solving problems in nearly every Bridges lesson. Math forums, which occur a few times in most units, are a more formal and structured time for students to share and discuss their work. Prior to conducting a forum, the teacher reviews students written work on a particular problem and selects specific students to share during the forum. She carefully plans the order in which students will share to help the rest of the class develop a deeper understanding of the problem and the variety of strategies that can be applied to solve it. Students who are not sharing their own work are expected to listen carefully, compare their classmates work to their own, and ask questions to better understand each student s ideas.

Number Corner, second edition, is a program of skills practice as well as ongoing encounters with broader mathematical concepts. Extensively revised to address the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics, Number Corner features daily 20-minute workouts that introduce, reinforce, and extend skills and concepts related to the critical areas of study at each grade level. Number Corner is an essential component of the Bridges in Mathematics curriculum, but it can be used to complement any K 5 curriculum, providing students and teachers with opportunities to apply Common Core skills in new settings and real-world contexts. The term Number Corner refers not only to the program as a whole but also to the physical bulletin board display. The display is the center of learning activities and the heart of a math-rich classroom environment. We strongly encourage leaving the display up in the room (rather than tucking it in an interactive whiteboard), so students can make use of the models throughout the day. The teacher and students add new pieces to the display each day, which offer starting points for discussions, problem solving, and short written exercises. Over the course of any given month, fourth graders predict and post new markers in the Calendar Grid pocket chart; collect and record a unit of measure or a small set of data each day and then make observations and draw conclusions about the collection; play games and participate in activities designed to improve computational fluency, including number line work; engage in problem strings a focused whole-group activity designed to increase students understanding of mathematical operations and relationships between numbers; and solve problems involving multiple steps, estimating, reasoning, fractions, and all four operations including division with remainders. Math becomes less abstract as students work with concrete and visual models related to multi-digit numbers; fractions; developing and using efficient strategies to add, subtract, multiply and divide; measurement quantities and measurement tools; and investigating and analyzing two-dimensional shapes and their attributes. Many teachers use the quick-paced Number Corner workouts as a warm-up for their daily math time. Others incorporate a workout into their morning routine or as a whole-group time to gather, review, and reflect at the end of the day. The lively sessions feature creative, original activities that build from five predictable routines. Games and challenges are designed to engage young learners as they develop numerical literacy and proficiency. The rigor, focus and coherence in each workout promote conceptual understanding and procedural fluency. We hope you ll enjoy guiding your students through Number Corner. We believe you ll find that with daily, long-term opportunities to work and play with numbers and concepts, their growth in mathematical thinking, confidence, and enthusiasm will soar. 2 Bridges in Mathematics Grade 4 Teachers Guide Number Corner Grade 4 Teachers Guide i BRIDGES Read the Bridges Introduction, and review the organizational charts.

Module 1 Models for Multiplication & Division Number Corner September In Module 1, the teacher works to set the tone for the year and to build community within the class. Students brainstorm what the class should look like and sound like in Session 1, extending and refining their list as the module continues. Also in Session 1, the teacher launches a multi-day investigation in which students determine the number of school supplies collected in a fictional fourth grade classroom. This context allows students to review and extend their understanding of multiplication strategies, concepts, and models including open number lines, ratio tables, and arrays. Students take the Pre-Assessment in Session 3 and reflect on their work in Session 4. They participate in the first math forum of the year in Session 6, sharing their work on a variety of story problems from Session 5. Planner During this first month of school, students become familiar with the rhythms and routines of each Number Corner workout, while reviewing, revisiting, and extending skills and concepts addressed in third grade and exploring those new to fourth grade. While each workout stands alone, there are also connections among them that invite students to consider the material in different contexts and that help solidify and deepen their understandings. The primary mathematical emphasis this month is multiplication: students review multiplication facts, work with multiples of 10, think about factors and multiples, and work on strategies for multiplication with larger numbers. Activities Workouts Day Activities D G SB Calendar Grid Ancient Egyptian Numerals The calendar markers this month feature unfamiliar symbols, which students learn mid-month are ancient Egyptian numerals. Students search for patterns among the symbols to determine how the ancient Egyptian system of numeration works and how the markers are changing from day to day. This pattern provides a place value review that will help as they work with larger numbers and decimal numbers later in the year. Session P&I PS MF WP A HC DP Session 1 Setting Our Course for the Year Session 1 opens with a discussion about how the classroom should look and sound during math period to ensure that everyone has a chance to be successful. Students ideas are recorded on a chart to set the tone for the day s work. Students listen to a story that launches them into an investigation to determine quantities of school supplies to be used in a fictional fourth grade classroom. They solve problems in pairs and share their strategies with the class. To close the session, the class makes a poster about their Community of Learners to refer to for the rest of the year. Session 2 Number Lines This session opens with the first problem string of the year. Students set up their student journals and work through the string to review using an open number line to represent multiplication problems. Then the investigation into Mrs. Carter s school supplies continues as they use a variety of strategies, including the problem string, to find quantities of supplies in Mrs. Carter s class. Students examine a Number Line Puzzle and apply the strategies they are practicing. Session 3 Pre-Assessment This session begins with a short problem string in which students investigate ratio tables. Then students complete the Pre-Assessment. They reflect on the assessment during the next session. This session ends with a brief exploration of the math manipulatives and materials students will use throughout the year. Session 4 Methods & Models for Multiplication After reviewing the pre-assessment given in Session 3, students solve several multiplication story problems and the teacher models their strategies using open number lines, ratio tables, and rectangular arrays. In the back of their math journals, students begin a handbook involving a collection of mathematics vocabulary and strategies to use throughout the year. Session 5 Models for Division Students investigate the relationship between multiplication and division using open number lines, ratio tables and the area model. After students collaborate to connect the three models to division, they begin a set of multiplication and division story problems. Session 6 Math Forum on Multiplication & Division Students finish the Camping Story Problems Student Book page from Session 5. Then the teacher leads the first math forum, a purposeful classroom discussion of students strategies. Today s forum focuses on grouping and sharing problems, using the array model to strengthen understanding. The teacher asks intentionally selected students to share their strategies for solving two of the Camping Story Problems. Throughout the forum, the teacher guides students understanding of the strategies and how the strategies relate to each other.

Students keep a chart to show the growing collection of inches, feet, and yards. They make conversions from one unit to another that involve both whole numbers and fractions. Computational Fluency The Number Line & Splat! Students identify and consider multiples of 2, 3, and 6 on a number line and and play a game called Splat! In the number line activities, students review factors and multiples, do count-arounds (i.e., count by a particular number), and record the multiples of 2, 3, and 6 on a number line. The game Splat! provides practice multiplying by 10 and by multiples of 10. Problem Strings Multiplication Models Students explore multiplication models and strategies as they review and solidify their understanding of how problem strings work. Solving Problems One-Step Multiplication Problems Students solve problems and then discuss their solutions in pairs and as a class. For each problem, they paraphrase the question they are being asked to answer, identify the pertinent information in the problem, show their work, and state the answer in the form of a complete sentence. The mathematical content focuses mainly on one-step multiplication problems, including multiplication in the context of calculating area. 1 1 Introducing the Calendar Grid 4 2 Updating & Discussing the Calendar Grid 7 3 Revealing the Tenth Marker & Introducing the Observations Chart 10 4 Comparing Numeration Systems 12, 16 5 Completing a Student Book Page 20 6 Concluding the September Calendar Grid 3 1 Introducing the October Calendar Collector 6 2 Introducing the Calendar Collector Record Sheet 14 3 Sharing Observations & Computing Total Inches, Feet & Yards 18 4 Completing the Inches, Feet & Yards Page 1, 7, 12 1 Marking Multiples of 2, 3 & 6 on the Number Line 4 2 Introducing Splat! 10, 16 3 Playing Splat! with a Partner 20 4 Looking Back at the Month 11 1 Problem String Problem String Problem String Introducing Solving Problems & Solving Megan s Marbles Problem 5 2 Discussing Megan s Marbles & Solving a Related Problem 15 3 Solving Xavier s Garden Problem 17 4 Discussing Xavier s Garden Problem September Introduction Assessment Baseline Assessment Students spend two periods completing a written assessment that provide teachers with information about some of the most critical skills students should have mastered in third grade.
