- Place Value and Operations: Rounding whole numbers to the nearest 10 or 100, fluently adding and subtracting within 1000, and multiplying one-digit numbers by multiples of 10.
- Measurement and Data: Telling time to the nearest minute, measuring liquid volumes and masses, drawing scaled picture graphs and bar graphs, and generating measurement data with rulers marked in halves and fourths of an inch.
- Geometry and Area: Recognizing area as an attribute of plane figures, measuring area by counting unit squares, relating area to multiplication and addition, solving perimeter problems, and partitioning shapes into equal parts expressed as unit fractions.
How StudyPug Helps Maryland 3rd Grade Math Students
When a student gets stuck on a concept like fractions on a number line or multi-step word problems, StudyPug lets them go back to the exact lesson they need, watch it as many times as necessary, and then work through practice problems with step-by-step explanations. For a solid start on all the skills in this course, explore our grade 3 math help section, which is organized to match what Maryland classrooms teach.
Building fluency takes repetition. The math quiz for 3rd grade lets students test themselves on multiplication, division, fractions, and measurement so they can see which areas still need work before a class test or the MCAP assessment.
