3rd Grade Math Planning:
March 18, 2019
Updates
- DCA Data day is set for Thursday, March 21st. 3rd Grade Reading will meet with Sheryl in the morning and Math will be in the afternoon. Tentative times are 8:00-11:20 and 12:00-3:30. Locations to be determined.
- We will use this time to identify the bubble students to attend and fill out the letters. We will dig into the data and begin preparing for the Relevant Review.
- Rebecca Poe will pull 4 kiddos from Castaneda and 4 from Virani if needed.
- Tutorials(now referred to as Math Club, will begin April 3rd-May 9th, on Wednesdays and Thursdays. We are looking for subs.
- Classroom teachers will pull the "bubble" kids again this year and will replace RM with IReady, but same format as last year.
- Maggie and I will not pull the bubble kids this year, but rather the 4th graders that we need to move up to meets and masters.

Unit 14: Length, Weight, and Capacity Test is March 22nd Review test.
- The focus on this unit is to apply the process standards to select appropriate units, strategies and tools to solve problems for both customary and metric.
- Get the math reference charts out with each lesson.
- We will be using chapters 11, 12 and 15 for this unit.
- Try to complete the review of the 2nd grade lessons for metric length and capacity, and review your previous anchor chart between the DCA days and that Friday after.
- Represent fractions of halves, fourths, and eighths as distances from zero on a number line.
- Includes fractions greater than one!
- Folding paper strips first and then connect to the ruler and math reference chart.
- Determine when it is appropriate to use measurements of liquid volume(capacity) or weight. Mass is not included in this SE.
- Expected to distinguish between liquid ounces and ounces that measure weight.
- The number of fluid ounces in a bottle of water is a different measure than the weight of the water bottle.
- Expected to use appropriate units and tools capacity ( tools- graduated cylinders, measuring cups, and containers units-gallons, quarts, pints, cups, liters etc.) weight (tools-scales, units-pounds, grams, etc)
- Students need to know the difference between capacity and weight.
- Sentence Stems: The _______ of the _______ is about ___________.
- Good line plot review with measurement on p. 178-179.
- Make sure to add three quarter inch to your lessons with quarter inch and half-inch
- Make connections and relate to science.
- Use bar models to solve and draw out the problems.
Unit 15: Area and Perimeter
- Must use the answer statements when solving problems. "The perimeter around the outside of the object is _____." "The area covering inside the object is ____."
- Must use concrete and pictorial models. Color tiles are a must. Connect this to the multiplication. Rows time Geoboards work well too.
- Manilla one-inch grid paper and the large anchor charts are your new best friend.
- Students need experiences with finding halves.
- Use the planning sheets from the math lead meeting! They are very helpful and full of sentence stems and quality questions.
- Sentence Stem: There are ___ rows with ____ unit squares in each row for a total of ____ square units. _____ X _____ = _____ so the area of this rectangle is ____ square units.
- Use the AREA and perimeter rectangle vocab card.
- 2 by 4 and 4 by 2 create the same area. Is important when you think of a photo frame, elevator, stamp etc.
- Decompose into 2 or more arrays. Encourage students to decompose in more than one way. After segmenting the arrays, the can determine the area for each rectangle and then add them altogether.
- Refer to the examples on p. 5
- Students will need to use their math charts to measure the perimeter of objects.
- Must understand the part/whole relationship when determining the missing measurements of a polygon.

Unit 16: Time The units are combined and will be tested on April 18th. Preview the test if available.
- Supporting Standard 3.7(C) determine the solutions to problems involving addition and subtraction of time intervals in minutes using pictorial models or tools such as a 15-minute event plus a 30 minute event equals 45 minutes.
- Students must determine to work forward or backward.
- Number lines and bar models are great pictorial models. A clock is a round number line.
- Number bonds are fantastic for breaking chunks of time in to minutes.
- Students should have learned how to tell time to the minute in 2nd grade.
- Must be able to do time conversions. Refer to math reference charts.
- Get the clocks in their hands!
- Make sure your analog clock is correct.
- Use the planning sheets from the math lead meeting! They are very helpful and full of sentence stems and quality questions.
Intervals of Time
When paired with 3(1)(C), students may be asked to use tools such as analog and digital clocks to solve problems related to the addition and subtraction of intervals of time in minutes. SE 3(7)(C) builds to 4(8)(C). Problems may include a start time with an interval or end time with an interval. Intervals may be less than or greater than 1 hour. Problems may not include a start time and an end time as elapsed time is addressed in 4(8)(C).
