4 TH G RADE E NGLISH L ANGUAGE A RTS CCGPS Equal Balance of Nonfiction and Literary Texts Reading Standards (Nonfiction and Literary Texts): Key Ideas and Details, Craft and Structure, Integration of Knowledge and Ideas, Range of Reading and Level of Text Complexity Reading Foundational Standards: Phonics/Word Recognition, and Fluency Writing Standards: Text Type and Purposes (informative/explanatory, opinion, and narrative), Production and Distribution of Writing, Research to Build and Present Knowledge, Range of Writing Speaking and Listening Standards: Comprehension and Collaboration, Presentation of Knowledge and Ideas Language Standards: Conventions of Standard English, Knowledge of Language, and Vocabulary Link to ELA Common Core Georgia Performance Standards Core/Common%20Core%20Frameworks/CCGPS_ELA_Grade4_Standards.pdf

T EXT COMPLEXITY AND L EXILE LEVELS A Lexile measure gives valuable information about a child’s reading ability OR difficulty level of a text. When your child reads within their Lexile range, he/she is likely to comprehend enough of the text, while still being sufficiently challenged. While Lexile measures target the difficulty level of a text, it does NOT measure the appropriateness of the content. A ball park range for 4 th grade CCGPS would be starting the year at 770 and ending the year at the high end of 875.

M ATHEMATICS Seven Units of Instruction Whole Numbers, Place Value, Rounding Fraction Equivalents Adding and Subtracting Fractions Multiplying and Dividing Fractions Fractions and Decimals Geometry Measurement
