What your child will be learning in third-grade mathematics
In grade three, students will continue to build their concept of numbers, developing an understanding of fractions as numbers. They will learn the concepts behind multiplication and division and apply problem-solving skills and strategies for multiplying and dividing numbers up through 100 to solve word problems. Students will also make connections between the concept of the area of a rectangle and multiplication and addition of whole numbers. See the unit information below to learn more about how math will unfold across the year.

Partnering with your child's teacher
Partnering with your child's teacher
Getting to know your child's teacher is important and communication with them throughout the year will support your child's individual growth while learning mathematics. Don’t be afraid to reach out to them—you are an important part of your child’s education. Ask to see a sample of your child’s work or bring a sample with you. Ask the teacher questions like:
Is my child at the level where he/she should be at this point of the school year?
Where is my child excelling?
What do you think is giving my child the most trouble? How can I help my child improve in this area?
