In third grade, we use Bridges in Mathematics, second edition, which fully implements the Common Core State Standards 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.

Our Math classes feature a combination of whole-group, small-group, and independent activities that are problem centered. Third graders engage in five major kinds of activities: Problems & Investigations, Work Places, Math Forums, Problem Strings, and Assessments.

The Common Core State Standards describe eight mathematical practices that characterize the ways in which mathematically proficient students engage with mathematical content. In Grade 3, students employ these practices with increasing independence, focusing in particular on improving their mathematical communication skills, modeling with mathematics, and reasoning both abstractly and quantitatively.
