Frequently asked questions
What math should a 3rd grader know?
Grade 3 typically covers multiplication and division within 100, an introduction to fractions, area and perimeter, rounding, and telling time to the minute.
Why do children struggle with fractions in Grade 3?
Fractions are the first time numbers stop behaving like whole numbers. Our Grade 3–4 Fractions workbook uses visual models before symbols, which is why it is our most recommended title for this age.
What science is taught in Grade 3?
Grade 3 science usually introduces life sciences, animals and habitats, states of matter, energy, and basic earth science.
