#3.073.OA.B.5

Distributive Property Grid

Use grid and area models to represent the distributive property by decomposing a challenging factor into friendly addends (such as 5 + n or 10 + n), finding partial products, and summing them to find the total product.

#3.103.OA.A.3

Division with Remainders Intro

Solve whole-number division problems with single-digit divisors resulting in a whole number quotient and remainder, understanding that the remainder must always be strictly less than the divisor.

#3.113.NF.A.1

Understanding Fractions

Understand a fraction 1/b as the quantity formed by 1 part when a whole is partitioned into b equal parts (halves, thirds, fourths, sixths, eighths), and understand a/b as the quantity formed by a parts of size 1/b.

#3.123.NF.A.2

Fractions on a Number Line

Represent a fraction 1/b and a/b on a number line diagram by partitioning the interval from 0 to 1 into b equal parts, recognizing each part has size 1/b, and locating a/b as a iterations of size 1/b from 0.

#3.133.NF.A.3.D

Comparing Fractions with the Same Denominator

Compare two fractions with the same denominator by reasoning about their size, recognizing that each part has the same size so the fraction with more parts (greater numerator) is larger, and recording comparisons with <, >, or = symbols.

#3.143.NF.A.3.D

Comparing Fractions with the Same Numerator

Compare two fractions with the same numerator by reasoning about the size of their unit parts, recognizing that dividing a whole into more parts creates smaller pieces, so the fraction with the smaller denominator is larger.

#3.153.NF.A.3.A

Equivalent Fractions with Area Models

Understand two fractions as equivalent if they cover the exact same area of the same-sized whole, and recognize or generate simple equivalent fractions (halves, thirds, fourths, sixths, eighths) using visual bars and circle area models.

#3.283.OA.D.8

Multi-Step Word Problems (Grade 3)

Solve two-step word problems using the four operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division); represent problems using equations with a letter standing for the unknown quantity, and assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies.

#3.293.OA.D.9

Arithmetic Patterns in Tables

Identify arithmetic patterns (including patterns in addition tables or multiplication tables), and explain them using properties of operations; determine input-output function rules and calculate missing values.

#3.303.NF.A.3.C

Fractions as Whole Numbers

Express whole numbers as fractions, and recognize fractions that are equivalent to whole numbers (e.g., express 3 in the form 3/1; recognize that 6/1 = 6; locate 4/4 and 1 at the same point on a number line diagram).

#3.323.NBT.A.2

Mental Subtraction Compensation Strategy

Fluently subtract multi-digit whole numbers within 1,000 using mental math strategies based on place value, specifically the constant difference compensation strategy (adding the same number to both minuend and subtrahend to create friendly decade numbers without regrouping).

#3.173.MD.C.6

Area Counting Unit Squares

Measure the area of plane figures by counting unit squares (square cm, square in, or square units) that tile a 2D surface without gaps or overlaps, bridging visual counting to row-by-column array multiplication.

#3.183.MD.C.7.B
