1 / 1 / Number Concepts and Problem Solving / Note: Place value concepts and addition and subtraction with and without regrouping will be covered over the first 12 weeks. A longer time frame will accommodate different rates at which 3rd grade students grasp these critical concepts.
  • Locate and name points on a number line using whole numbers
  • Read, write, and describe whole numbers through 999,999 (within Units 1 and 2)
  • Compare and order whole numbers through 9,999 (within Units 1 and 2)
  • Determine the value of a collection of coins and bills
  • Addition and subtraction without regrouping to 999 (fact families/inverse operations)
  • Addition and subtraction with regrouping (within Units 1 and 2)
  • Problem Solving Strategies –“Act It Out” and “Writea Number Sentence”
