Description

This Third Grade Math Back to School Unit is designed to be teacher and student-friendly with math lessons and activities that are fun, engaging, and easy to prep. Whether you are looking for a stand-alone curriculum or a supplement to your required school curriculum, this comprehensive unit has everything you need to teach third grade standards with ease.

Not all math curriculum is awful. Just sum. Ba-da-bum! 

But when it is bad, it is very, very bad. And unfortunately, a lot of traditional math curriculum is very, very bad. It’s overly complex, too long, impossible to differentiate, difficult to manage, and, frankly, not much fun. It can be hard to wade through all the extras and find the most valuable parts of the lesson. You don’t have time to read dozens of pages in the teacher manual and there are way too many different pieces to prep. Ugh!

If that sounds like your math curriculum, you’re in luck. Because now you have an alternative that is very, very good. A math curriculum that you and your students will LOVE!

This Place Value Unit includes fun, engaging, and easy-to-prep lessons and hands-on activities. It is the perfect way to review essential math skills and get kids excited about math.

This comprehensive ready-to-teach unit comes with the lessons, practice pages, and tools you need to teach standards-based math skills. The instructional PowerPoint is your complete mini lesson–just project on the board and teach. Daily student activities are effective and engaging–just print and copy for each student. We’ve also included a list of frequently asked questions to address some common concerns and help you troubleshoot.

This Place Value Unit includes ten days of complete lessons on place value, including rounding to the nearest ten and hundred. The At a Glance schedule helps you plan your lessons for the entire week. Each day includes an instructional PowerPoint and student activity. This low-prep unit will save you so much time!

How to Use It in the Classroom:

  • You can use the PowerPoint mini-lesson for your whole group instruction. Project on the whiteboard and have students participate in the interactive lesson.
  • Complete class activities as a whole group, independently, or with partners.
  • Introduce the workshop model and meet with small groups of students each day. Don’t worry about these being your regular groups yet. Just get kids used to working independently on the activities while you meet with small groups. As a bonus, you get to see some of your students’ mathematical thinking up close.
  • Differentiation is easy with directions for intervention, on-level, and enrichment activities.
  • Take a few minutes to share at the end of class. Students will enjoy getting to share what they learned and learning a little bit about their new classmates.
  • Each mini-lesson will take about 20-30 minutes and you will need an additional 40-60 minutes for small group work and centers.

  • Done-for-you PowerPoint that you can open and go -- letting it guide your whole-group lesson
