upcoming math tests

the three tests for this unit are as follows: the first is on factors of 100 and that will probably be next tuesday. the next will be an application of those factors for example, how many 20's in 360? that test will probably be next thursday. Then the students will have a test on division with remainders. for example, 100 divided by 7. today we practiced all three of those skills and we will continue to do so until test date. I told the students to bring home all the examples we did today as an aid for parents.The students must know the factors of 100 to be successful on the first two tests and they must be proficient at skip counting to do well on the third. 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.
