Third grade is an important year for mathematical computation. Students must master their addition and subtraction facts in order to be successful in multiplication and division. What we are expected to investigate is listed below:

* Place value to thousands, composing and decomposing numbers

* Addition/subtraction fluency within 1,000

* Time to the nearest minute and elapsed time

* Multiplication and division concepts, strategies, properties, representations and problem solving

* Fractions as parts of wholes, involving unit fractions

* Geometric shapes and attributes, area as it relates to multiplication and addition, perimeter

* Measurement of length to whole, 1/2, and 1/4 inch, Mass, and Capacity

* Data including picture graphs and bar graphs
