I have found a great website that has several different resources for parents that cover North Carolina 3rd grade MATH curriculum & information. The website can be found at this link https://tools4ncteachers.com/third-grade/
Within this website I wanted to post 3 things for you today...
1. There is a website called "Khan Academy" which is a WONDERFUL tool to help students learn & practice different MATH skills. Below I am attaching the link to a "parent letter" that basically step by step instructs you how to create your own account for your kids to practice at home. I know several parents who have used this as extra practice within a normal school year since it is grade level/topic specific.
2. This is a link to a document that includes helpful MATH websites for parents to use with their children at home. There are 6 different options of topics and each has a link & description of the sites.

3. At the very bottom of this page (scroll alllllll the way down) I have linked the last document that I find helpful for you all to have access to at home. It is an additional resource list for MATH that covers topics learned all the way up until and throughout 3rd grade. It is in a document labeled "AdditionalResourceList" .
