Unit 15: Area and Perimeter: Test has been moved to April 17th.
- 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 17th.
- 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).
