Third Grade Color Math Curriculum with Manipulative Kit

9781592692330 The Third Grade Color Math Curriculum with Manipulative Kit package includes: Teacher’s Manual Workbook Response Book Resource Pack Manipulative Kit The McRuffy 3rd Grade Color Math follows the same design as 2nd Color Math. The curriculum contains a detailed Teacher’s Manual, a colorful Workbook, Response Book, and Resource Pack containing card sets, games, posters, and more.  The McRuffy Color Math series uses a spiral approach. Concepts are introduced and reviewed throughout the year. This avoids many curricula' “learn it and forget it” structure that segments concepts into units. Instead, students continue to build on previous learning throughout the year. Sometimes a concept is expounded on. Sometimes a concept is reviewed.  3rd Grade concepts include Addition and subtraction (up to four digits) with regrouping, adding up to four numbers, Roman Numerals, Multiplication facts, Division facts, Reading thermometers, Measuring, Making change (money), Counting change from dollar amounts, Place value from hundredths to millions, Adding and subtracting fractions, Geometric reasoning, Telling time to the nearest minute, Properties, Math tables, Coordinate systems. The easy-to-use math lesson plans in the Third Grade Color Math Teacher’s Manuals give daily assignments. Lesson objectives are clearly stated at the beginning of the lesson so you’ll know exactly what you’re teaching. The Materials section of the lesson plan states the materials and manipulatives used in the lesson so you’ll be fully prepared to teach. Most lessons require very little advanced preparation. The Third Grade Color Math Teacher’s Manual is published in two parts. Part 1 covers lessons 1 to 80. Part 2 covers lessons 81 to 161.
