3rd Grade Math Number and Operations
3rd grade covers both Number and Operations in Base Ten and Number and Operations – Fractions.
Many years ago when I taught third grade I enjoyed teaching fractions. It’s one of those skills where you can see students really “light up” when they start to understand the concept.
Here are the standards and some videos to explain the concepts. I hope you find this helpful.
