Formative Math tests are in !!
The first formative math test is in. these are tests to be given at the end of each unit. they are made up by Duval County and they are difficult. ALL third grade students in Duval county should be taking them sometime this week. I will be reviewing skills such as mult/div/arrays/multiples/equations/skip counting and more on Monday and Tuesday. the test will be on wednesday. These are skills that have already been taught and most have been tested so we should do well. Additionally, I will starting the next Math unit--flips, turns, slides, and area. Thanks.AG.
An Exciting Year
Are you ready?--Ready to learn more about Math, Science, and Social Studies than you've ever learned before! Math Investigations is taught and as you may know, M.I. does not have very much homework. Grades will be given through tests and Duval County exams. Science and Social Studies will be given report card grades for the first time (instead of S/N) and a study guide will be given approx. two day before the test. It is up to the student to copy the study guide and STUDY the study guide. You can help your child in Math by practicing skip counting with them--for example 3,6,9,12...etc.
last year they should have learned to skip count by 2's, 3's, 5's, and 10's to 1,000. Now practice the 4's, 6's, 7's, 8's, and 9's.Skip counting is essential in third grade.

The students have a wonderful study guide for social studies and science, but what about math? Why not post (on this blog) some examples of what you are going over in class so I can help my child at home. They do not have a book to bring home or any worksheets to practice on. How can I help my child learn more in math? What about FREE after school tutoring?
