Overview
View the
Video
introduction.
Where do you
see numbers? Think about when you are riding in a car, at the grocery
store, or at home. Numbers are all around us, and they have many purposes
in our lives.
August in third grade
focuses on learning critical mathematics skills and includes lessons on
number sense, computation, estimation, and geometry. Third graders will
experience math activities expressing numbers greater than 1,000 in different ways,
and addition
and subtraction with larger numbers.
Students will read, write, and order numbers identifying place value up to
10,000. They will recognize odd/even numbers to 1,000 and identify money
combinations to $1.00.

Enduring Understandings
are important ideas that students should carry with them years beyond the
instruction received this year.
Essential Questions
are the most important “big picture” questions students should be able to
answer after completing learning activities.
-
Why is place value important?
-
What are different ways can you
write a number?
-
Why do digits have designated
places in larger numbers?

Parents
Your child is entering the world of larger numbers in third grade. Help your
child grasp the concept by pointing out large numbers in the newspaper, on
television news, on city population road signs, and video game scores.
Discuss how many ones are in a ten, tens are in a hundred, and hundreds are
in a thousand, etc. Once your child starts to see the pattern of tens, the
concept of larger numbers will become easier. Solving simple word problems
that work with addition/subtraction to 18 is a great way to spend driving
time together. Make sure you are helping your child develop a sense of
reasonableness in the answers you discuss. Does it make sense that the
answer would be in the hundreds or thousands? Help your child notice the
lines of symmetry (same-shaped halves) in geometric shapes found around the
house; the oatmeal box, the heart cookie, the round skillet, the rectangular
shoe box lid. It doesn't cost much in effort or expense to support your
child in mathematics, however, the creativity and time you use will earn big
rewards.

After about five minutes, analyze your results. What do you notice about the
sums of the equations in each section? Do you notice any patterns? How can
this information help you when you add numbers.
-
Assessment Prompt:
Give each student 1 index card. Ask students to write “even”
on one side of the index card and “odd” on the other side. Teacher calls
out numbers and students hold up either the odd or even side of the index
card depending on the number given. (Teacher, use assessment checklist that
is attached.) Have students explain what the different outcomes are when
they add even numbers and when they add odd numbers. On a separate sheet of
paper, explain what the outcomes are when you add: even + even odd + odd even + odd What outcome
occurs most often?
Differentiation
Support: Use hundreds chart as a reference. Using calculator tape, students
create their own number line (at least to 20) color coding the odd and even
numbers. (i.e. odd numbers are all red and even numbers are all blue)
**Hint-odd and red both have three letters, blue and even both have four
letters.
Extended Learning:
Write random
2-digit odd numbers on the left side of the board and random 2-digit even
numbers on the right side of the board. Ask students what the left side/odd
numbers have in common (i.e. digits in the ones place). Do the same with
the right side/even numbers. Show
students that the digit in the ones place determines whether or not a number
is even or odd.
Tell the students that
since they can now determine even and odd numbers you want them to notice
something else about even and odd numbers. Give the students the Even/Odd
Outcome sheet and one 10-sided double die. Have them roll the die and add
the two numbers. The students will write the equation in the correct section
on their sheet. After doing this activity for about 5 minutes, ask the
students to analyze their results. What do they notice about the sums of the
equations in each section? Are there any patterns? How can this information
help you when you are adding numbers?

Using your place value pocket chart, review ones, tens, hundreds, and
thousands places.
Display a four digit number in the place value pocket chart. Ask students to
find what digit is in the ones place, tens place, etc.
Tell the students one digit from the number and ask them to state the
place value of that digit.
Continue review as needed.
Using your place value pocket chart, introduce the ten thousands place
value.
Show the relationship between the ones and thousands on the place value
chart.
Ask the students if they can find any other similarities among the tens and
hundreds and thousands and ten thousands.
Use the following analogy to help students see the relationships between the
different places. Put a big comma in between the thousands and the hundreds
place value.
Practice place value to the ten thousands place.
Display a five digit number and ask them to identify digits in different
places.
State the place and have students identify the digit in that place.
Students may use white boards, math journals, or discuss oral responses with
a partner.
Use the songs “Place Value” song and “Place Value Rap” CD Math Concepts I
and II by Ron Brown to help students learn their place value.
Using the pocket chart students created and their digit cards, dictate
numbers to the ten thousands place. Students will then use their digit cards
to create the dictated number in their pocket charts.
Display a five digit number and ask them to identify digits in different
places.
State the place and have students identify the digit in that place.
Students may use white boards, math journals, or discuss oral responses with
a partner.
Play Place Value Bingo. Each student receives a copy of the game board and
they write any digit 0-9 in each blank until the card is full. Either roll
the die to make 5-digit numbers or dictate 5-digit numbers. If a digit from
the number matches one of the place values, the students have on their Bingo
card, they get to cover that square. Only one space may be covered for each
5-digit number. Ask the students to write the 5-digit number in the box for
easier checking.

I
am a four digit number. I have a one in my thousands place, and a two in
my hundreds place. I am a palindrome. (A palindrome reads the same,
forwards and backwards. The words “pop” and “level” are palindromes. The
numbers “747" and “842248" are palindromes.) What number am I?
-
I’m a five digit number. Four of my digits are zeros. I am the greatest
number possible with those characteristics. What number am I?
