3rd Grade Math Topics in Connecticut
Connecticut 3rd grade math covers a wide range of topics under the Connecticut Core Standards Math. Students work through multiplication and division, fractions, place value, measurement, data, geometry, and area. StudyPug has a video lesson and practice problems for every one of these topics.
Multiplication and Division
In 3rd grade, Connecticut students learn to interpret products and quotients of whole numbers. They solve word problems using multiplication and division within 100, apply properties of operations, and work toward fluency with all multiplication and division facts up to 100. StudyPug breaks each of these skills into short, clear video lessons.
Fractions
3rd graders in Connecticut begin working with fractions as numbers. They understand unit fractions like 1/2 and 1/4, represent fractions on a number line, and compare fractions by reasoning about their size. These are foundational skills that prepare students for 4th grade fraction operations.
Measurement and Data
Students measure time to the nearest minute, estimate liquid volumes and masses, and generate measurement data using rulers marked with halves and fourths of an inch. They also draw and read scaled picture graphs and bar graphs to represent data sets.
Area and Perimeter
Connecticut 3rd graders are introduced to area as an attribute of plane figures. They count unit squares, relate area to multiplication and addition, and solve real-world problems involving perimeters of polygons. These geometry skills connect directly to multiplication concepts learned earlier in the year.
