Welcome to Mrs. Hill’s Third Grade Math P.I.R.A.T.E.S.
(Prepared, Informed, Responsible and Truly Engaged Students)
This year will build on everything your child has
learned in second grade and move onto to more difficult concepts, like
multiplication & division. I will be teaching your child in new, innovative,
and engaging ways, most of which you will have never seen before. I ask that you please do not reteach
your child. Many of the concepts, he or she will learn in third grade will be concepts you did not learn until 4th or 5th
grade, and I have developed different ways to make these harder concepts easier to
grasp.
Our Team Schedule
Everyday in math will
follow the same format:
1. Homework:
We will go over the previous night’s work and write down our new homework. They will
have 7 problems (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, estimation, and a word problem) Monday-Thursday.
2. Mountain
Math- This is a bulletin board activity that will review and
preview all math concepts taught throughout the year.
3. Whiz Quiz- These are a 1 minute fact practice that comes on a strip of paper and focuses on one set of facts. Every child moves at their own pace and starts out on addition and works all the way through to division. If they pass, they move on. If they don’t, they have to practice for homework. Knowing basic facts will make everything we do in 3rd grade so much easier.
4. Lesson-This
is will we will learn new concepts.
5. Work
Outs-This is our practice session.
