Grade 4 Shared Resources, Grade 04, version 02 (Print)

The resources listed below are used throughout the Grade 4 program.

Seven core modules have been designed to form the basis of the grade four program. Each of these modules consists of 18 full days of learning. All subject areas except mathematics and handwriting are integrated in the activities and projects. Mathematics is covered in six separate modules.

Nine special interest modules have been developed to meet a wide variety of student interests. They can be used across the intermediate grades. They generally consist of 9 full days of learning. In some cases, they may be completed over an extended period of time, for example, the Travelling module.

A consumable Student Book containing work pages, charts, and a guide for home instructors has been produced for each core and special interest module so that the modules can be used for more than one year.

Students are expected to complete the seven core modules (Modules 1 to 7), the six mathematics modules, one handwriting module, and a selection of special interest modules during the school year.
