Minnesota 3rd Grade Math Topics
- Multiplication and division: Interpret products and quotients of whole numbers, use multiplication and division within 100 to solve word problems, apply properties of operations, and build fluency with all facts to 100.
- Place value, rounding, and computation: Round whole numbers to the nearest 10 or 100, add and subtract fluently within 1000, and multiply one-digit numbers by multiples of 10.
- Fractions: Understand unit fractions, represent fractions on a number line, explain equivalence, and compare fractions by reasoning about their size.
- Measurement and data: Tell time to the nearest minute, measure liquid volumes and masses, draw scaled picture graphs and bar graphs, and measure lengths to the nearest half and fourth of an inch.
- Area and perimeter: Recognize area as an attribute of plane figures, measure area by counting unit squares, relate area to multiplication and addition, and solve problems involving perimeters of polygons.
- Geometry: Understand shared attributes of shape categories and partition shapes into equal parts expressed as unit fractions.
