Mathematics 3

Students in Mathematics 3 focus on multiplication and division, as this course aims to build strong foundational skills in these areas. Students explore the relationship between multiplication and division and practice using properties of operations to solve problems, including one- and two-step word problems. In addition to using place value to perform multi-digit arithmetic, students round numbers to the nearest ten or hundred. They refine their mathematics skills in relation to measurement by measuring liquid volume and mass and to telling time by measuring time intervals in minutes. Mathematics 3 presents area and perimeter to students as they explore linear and area measurements. They also work with fractions as numbers in this course, representing them on number lines, generating equivalent fractions, and comparing fractions with the same numerator and denominator. Finally, students explore the ways in which various types of data can be displayed. This course includes a printed Parent and Teacher Guide that will help you support your student’s learning.
