Our Year 4 maths support is designed to meet your child at the right level, whether they need help with times tables, multiplication and division, fractions and decimals, measurement or problem solving. Their personalised learning plan helps them strengthen key skills, build confidence and keep moving forward at a pace that works for them. For children who are ready for more, learning can extend one step ahead, while still keeping the pace right for them.
We start with an assessment to understand your child’s current maths level, identify any gaps in understanding across multiple year levels of the Australian Curriculum, and see where they are ready to move ahead. From there, we create a personalised weekly learning plan tailored to their needs.
Your child’s personalised learning plan is delivered weekly and can be completed at home on a tablet or computer. Each Monday, new 20-minute maths lessons are added based on your child’s progress, helping keep learning at the right level and supporting a consistent learning routine.
As your child strengthens their foundations, you’ll see them build skills and confidence in maths, and keep moving forward at a pace that feels right for them.
If your child needs extra support, our online maths tutors are there to explain concepts further and answer questions, so your child can continue with confidence.
When your child gets started with Kinetic Education, their first step is completing our Maths Doctor assessment. This checks their maths skills across multiple year levels of the Australian Curriculum, helping us understand how they are going with key areas such as place value, multiplication and division, fractions and decimals, measurement and problem solving.
The assessment takes up to 45 minutes and gives you a clear picture of their current skills, including where they may need more practice and where they are ready to move ahead. From there, we create a personalised weekly learning plan, so your child can work through the curriculum at the right pace for them.
Every Monday, we update your child's learning plan with new maths activities for the week, selected based on their assessment results and progress. Your child's learning plan is structured around three learning stages: Revision and Catch-Up, Consolidation, and Extension.
When your child first starts with Kinetic Education, their learning plan targets the knowledge gaps identified in their assessment. For Year 4 students, this may include revisiting earlier number skills, place value, addition, subtraction, times tables or early multiplication and division concepts they need before moving into more complex work.
Once their foundations are stronger, your child practises the skills being covered in Year 4 maths. This may include building fluency with times tables, longer multiplication and division, decimals, fractions, measurement, area, perimeter, volume and problem solving.
When your child is feeling confident in Year 4 maths, we give them the opportunity to move ahead while still working at a pace that suits them.
Year 4 is a year of building real fluency, with times tables, longer multiplication and division, and the first steps into decimals. When your family joins Kinetic Education, you are matched with a tutor who helps your child get off to a strong start, while overseeing their personalised learning plan and keeping an eye on their progress each week. Each activity is designed to teach your child, give them instant feedback and help them build confidence as they move through the curriculum.
We also know that sometimes children need a little extra help or encouragement. That is where our maths tutors step in. If your child needs support with a Year 4 maths concept, their tutor can guide them using screen sharing and a digital whiteboard, helping them understand the task and feel more confident tackling the next one on their own.
Our tutors are also here for parents. You can speak with your tutor about your child's learning needs, progress and weekly reports, so you know how they are going and what they are working on next.

We know that sometimes children don’t understand why they need to do extra maths work at home, and they might need a bit of extra motivation. That’s why every child enrolled with us gets to experience our unique rewards system.
Here’s how it works: your child earns points after every maths activity, which they can save up and swap for real rewards like Smiggle, Myer, and WISH gift cards.
When children are finding maths hard, it can affect more than their schoolwork. It can shake their confidence, motivation and willingness to try.
Kinetic Education helps children build confidence by starting at the level that is right for them. Through targeted assessment, personalised learning and tutor support, your child can strengthen key maths skills, close learning gaps and feel more capable as they move through Year 4.
The level of support provided by Kinetic really stands out!
Both of my children, one in Year 4 and the other in Prep, are enrolled in Kinetic Education, and it has been extremely beneficial. The initial assessments were particularly useful in identifying any gaps in their knowledge, and customised lessons were created to address these and challenge them at the same time. They also enjoy the work. It’s a fantastic tool for parents as well. Additionally, the level of support provided by Kinetic really stands out. Rachel is exceptional—thorough, patient, and always ready to answer my questions. Her support has been invaluable!
Kinetic Education has been an incredible support for my children in Year 4 and Prep, helping them build strong confidence and love for learning. The lessons are engaging, easy to follow, and perfectly matched to each child’s level. Melissa was the tutor who helped my kids for any additional queries. There is always room for flexibility about studying pattern and timings and workload. I’ve seen huge improvement in both their understanding and enthusiasm—highly recommend it to all parents!
Results speak for themselves!!
Both girls Year 4 and 6 began the year with no confidence and general dislike of mathematics. After 4 months with Kinetic the girls are completely confident, have an enjoyment of maths I never thought possible and often lead the classroom. Could not be happier with their progress. Highly recommend.
Brilliant program highly recommended.
My son started with Kinetic Education in year 4 he did his first test showing he was missing knowledge from year 3 and was behind. A year later he is now at a year 6/7 level. He started with no confidence in his work and ended up with so much confidence. It’s an easy platform to use and the educators are available to help if needed. Brilliant program highly recommended.
Yes. Year 4 introduces a lot of new fluency, from times tables and longer multiplication and division to fractions and decimals. Gaps at this stage can make later maths harder, so it is a great time to make sure your child has strong foundations and feels confident with each new step.
Each Monday, your child's learning plan is updated with new maths activities for the week. The lessons are designed to take around 15 to 20 minutes a day, short enough to fit around school and family life, but consistent enough to make a real difference over time. Your child works through their activities on a tablet or computer, at whatever time works best for your family. Each lesson includes clear explanations, examples and instant feedback, so your child isn't just practising, they're learning as they go. If they get stuck on something, they can contact their tutor for support after school Monday to Thursday. You'll also receive a weekly progress report so you can see exactly what they worked on and how they went.
That is exactly what our Maths Doctor assessment is designed to help with. It checks your child's skills across multiple year levels of the Australian Curriculum, so we can see where they may need more practice and where they are ready to move ahead. From there, we create a personalised weekly learning plan matched to their level.
Kinetic Education can support children who are ready for extension too. If your child is confident with their current work, their personalised learning plan can move them into more challenging activities so they can keep progressing.
Year 4 builds real fluency. Your child works through their times tables to 12, longer multiplication and an introduction to division, builds on fractions with equivalent fractions and decimals such as tenths and hundredths, and starts measuring area, perimeter and volume. Their personalised learning plan introduces these at a pace that suits them.
