Grade 3, Quarter 2, Unit 1: October/November
Place Value
(@20 days)

Overview
Unit 1 of quarter 2 focuses on learning critical mathematics skills and includes lessons on computation, place value, data, and money. Third graders will experience math activities expressing numbers in different ways, money combinations, addition and subtraction with larger numbers, and communicating their thinking and processing when solving problem solving. Students will continue the study of the inverse nature of addition and subtraction and the commutative and associative properties using fact families. They will learn 2 and 3-digit subtraction with regrouping and subtraction with money making change. Students will describe and compare metric and standard units of measurement.

 

Standards

Enduring Understandings are important ideas that students should carry with them years beyond the instruction received this year.

  • Mathematics is dependent on place value.

  • A sense of number is necessary to communicate the reasoning used in problem solving.

Essential Questions are the most important “big picture” questions students should be able to answer after completing learning activities.

  • How can a digit have different values in different places?

  • How many different ways can you write a number?

  • What mathematics vocabulary do you need to communicate mathematical ideas?

  • How are addition and subtraction related to each other?

  • How do addition and subtraction relate to money?

CSAP Tested Standards  Highest Frequency High Frequency Other Standards and E-Skills

Highest Frequency = the timing, intensity and level of accountability is extremely high because mastery of these skills will must be demonstrated in multiple test items on CSAP at this grade level.
High Frequency = the timing, intensity and level of accountability is high because mastery of these skills will be tested at this grade level.
Other Standards and E-Skills = the timing, intensity, and level of mastery are not urgent. It should be introduced during this time so students can experience the concept and return in future quarters to strive towards mastery.

Parents

Your third grader is experiencing the magic of place value. Why does a digit have different values in different places? Previous work with tens and hundreds gets practical application this quarter. Be sure to give your child plenty of opportunities to think about and talk about the idea of ten to support the concept of place value (ten ones make a ten, ten tens make a hundred, ten hundreds make a thousand, etc.). Help your child see information that is important to him/her in the form of a graph. An example would be a simple chart with either chores, allowance, or sports or music practice. Turn the chart information into a graph and talk about the trends you both see. Children whose parents let them work with money in practical ways learn how to count change with less effort. All of these simple activities will build your relationship and your child's math fluency. Cost = $0, Return = Priceless!
