Content increasing and decreasing patterns Mathematics 3 No CCG
Keyword: patterns Elaboration: creating patterns using concrete, pictorial, and numerical representationsrepresenting increasing and decreasing patterns in multiple waysgeneralizing what makes the pattern increase or decrease (e.g., doubling, adding 2)
Content multiplication and division concepts Mathematics 3 No CCG
Keyword: multiplication and division Elaboration: understanding concepts of multiplication (e.g., groups of, arrays, repeated addition)understanding concepts of division (e.g., sharing, grouping, repeated subtraction)Multiplication and division are related.Provide opportunities for concrete and pictorial representations of multiplication.Use games to develop opportunities for authentic practice of multiplication computations.looking for patterns in numbers, such as in a hundred chart, to further develop understanding of multiplication computationConnect multiplication to skip-counting.Connect multiplication to division and repeated addition.Memorization of facts is not intended for this level.fish drying on rack; sharing of food resources in First Peoples communities
Content addition and subtraction facts to 20 (emerging computational fluency) Mathematics 3 No CCG
Keyword: computational fluency Elaboration: adding and subtracting of numbers to 20demonstrating fluency with math strategies for addition and subtraction (e.g., decomposing, making and bridging 10, related doubles, and commutative property)Addition and subtraction are related.At the end of Grade 3, most students should be able to recall addition facts to 20.
Content addition and subtraction to 1000 Mathematics 3 No CCG
Keyword: addition and subtraction Elaboration: using flexible computation strategies, involving taking apart (e.g., decomposing using friendly numbers and compensating) and combining numbers in a variety of ways, regroupingestimating sums and differences of all operations to 1000using addition and subtraction in real-life contexts and problem-based situationswhole-class number talks
Content fraction concepts Mathematics 3 No CCG
Keyword: fraction concepts Elaboration: Fractions are numbers that represent an amount or quantity.Fractions can represent parts of a region, set, or linear model.Fraction parts are equal shares or equal-sized portions of a whole or unit.Provide opportunities to explore and create fractions with concrete materials.recording pictorial representations of fraction models and connecting to symbolic notationequal partitioningequal sharing, pole ratios as visual parts, medicine wheel, seasons
Content number concepts to 1000 Mathematics 3 No CCG
Keyword: number concepts Elaboration: counting:skip-counting by any number from any starting point, increasing and decreasing (i.e., forward and backward)skip-counting is related to multiplicationinvestigating place-value based counting patterns (e.g., counting by 10s, 100s; bridging over a century; noticing the role of zero as a placeholder 698, 699, 700, 701; noticing the predictability of our number system)Numbers to 1000 can be arranged and recognized:comparing and ordering numbersestimating large quantitiesplace value:100s, 10s, and 1sunderstanding the relationship between digit places and their values, to 1000 (e.g., the digit 4 in 342 has the value of 40 or 4 tens)understanding the importance of 0 as a place holder (e.g., in the number 408, the zero indicates that there are 0 tens)instructional resource: Math in a Cultural Context, by Jerry Lipka
