M3N2 Students will further develop their skills of addition and subtraction and apply them in problem
solving.
a. Use the properties of addition and subtraction to compute and verify the results of computation.
b. Use mental math and estimation strategies to add and subtract.
c. Solve problems requiring addition and subtraction.
d. Model addition and subtraction by counting back change using the fewest number of coins.
Properties of Addition
Commutative property: When two numbers are added, the sum is the same regardless of the order of the
addends. For example 4 + 2 = 2 + 4
Associative Property: When three or more numbers are added, the sum is the same regardless of the grouping of
the addends. For example (2 + 3) + 4 = 2 + (3 + 4)
Identity Property: The sum of any number and zero is the original number. For example 5 + 0 = 5.
There is an inverse relationship between addition and subtraction .
Example: Since 3 + 7 = 10 then the following are also true:
10 - 3 = 7
10 - 7 = 3
Similar relationships exist for subtraction.Example: Since 10 - 3 = 7 then the following are also true:
3 + 7 = 10 7 + 3 = 10
An equation is balanced or the same on either side of the equals (=) sign. If exactly the same thing is done to bothsides of the equation, it will still be balanced or equal.
In the example above we start with the equation 3 + 7 = 10:
Subtract the same number from both sides
3 + 7 - 3 = 10 - 3
On the left side the 3 and -3 produce 0 which leaves7 = 10 - 3
Turning the equation around to be in more normal form
10 - 3 = 7

M3N3 Students will further develop their understanding of multiplication of whole numbers and develop
the ability to apply it in problem solving.
a. Describe the relationship between addition and multiplication, i.e., multiplication is defined as
repeated addition.
For example, 3 x 7 = 21, instead you may consider it as 3 x 7 = 7 + 7 + 7 = 14 + 7 = 21. This particular method isa bit challenging in terms of addition for a child, but it lucidly shows the relationship between multiplication and
addition.Accordingly, you may also calculate 9 x 7 = 10 x 7 - 7 = 63 or 6 x 7 = 3 x 7 + 3 x 7 = 21 + 21 = 42. It is
also a creative method to learn the multiplication table, which explains you the exact working of math.
b. Know the multiplication facts with understanding and fluency to 10x10.

23 is 2 tens and 3 ones.
3 ones multiplied by 4 gives 12 ones and
2 tens multiplied by 4 gives 8 tens (that is 80).
80 and 12 are added to give the final product 92.
The 3 ones are first multiplied by 4 giving the product 12, which is 1 ten and 2 ones. 2 is written in the ones
column and the 1 is recorded in the tens column. Now the 2 tens are multiplied by 4 to give 8 tens. The 1 ten
recorded before is added on, so the product has 9 tens.
M3N3
c. Use arrays and area models to develop understanding of the distributive property and to determine
partial products for multiplication of 2- or 3- digit number.
Multiplication can be defined in terms of repeated addition. For example, 3 6 can be viewed as 6 + 6 + 6. More generally,
for any positive integern, n b can be represented as n b = b + b + + b
where the sum on the right consists ofn addends.
A rectangular array provides a visual model for multiplication. For example, the product 3 6 can be represented as
By displaying 18 dots as 3 rows with 6 dots in each row, this array provides a visual representation of 3 6 as 6 + 6 + 6.
An equivalent area model can be made in which the dots of the array are replaced by unit squares.
Besides representing 3 6 as an array of 18 unit squares, this model also shows that the area of a rectangle with a height of
3 units and a base of 6 units is 3 6 square units, or 18 square units.
Given a pair of numbers a and b called factors, multiplication assigns them a value a b = c, called their product.
4
7/31/2019 3rd GradeMathCRCTStudyGuide2010
5/31
The Commutative Property of Multiplication states that changing the order in which two numbers are multiplied does not
change the product. That is, for all numbers a and b, a b = b a.
The array model can be used to make this plausible. For example, because 3 6 = 6 3, an array with 3 rows and 6 dots in
each row has the same number of dots as an array with 6 rows and 3 dots in each row.
Another important property of multiplication is the Identity Property of Multiplication. It states that the product of any
number and 1 is that number. That is, for all numbers a, a 1 = 1 a = a.
The Zero Property of Multiplication states that when a number is multiplied by zero, the product is zero. That is, for all
numbers a, a 0 = 0 a = 0.
M3N3
d. Understand the effect on the product when multiplying by multiples of 10.
8x1=8
8x10=808x100=800
8x1000=8,000
8x2=16
8x2=1608x200=1600
8x2000=16,00
e. Apply the identity and commutative and associative properties of multiplication and verify the
results.Multiplication Property definition Example
Commutative Property When you change the order of the
factors, the product stays the same.
5 x 4 = 4 x 5
Associative Property When you group factors in different
ways, the product stays the same. The
parentheses tell you which numbers to
multiply first.
(6 x 7) x 9 = 6 x (7 x 9)
Distributive Property When two addends are multiplied by a
factor, the product is the same wheneach addend is multiplied by the factor
and those products are added.
(3 + 5) x 2 = (3 x 2) + (5 x 2)
Property of One When you multiply any number by 1,
the product is equal to that number.
12 x 1 = 12
Zero Property When you multiply any number by 0,the product is 0.
178 x 0 = 0
Factorthe number used in a multiplication problem: 6 x 5 = 30 6 and 5 are factors
Product-the answer in a multiplication problem: 6 x 5 = 30 30 is the product
Addend-the number to be added in an addition problem: (3+5) x 2 3 and 5 are addends

f. Use mental math and estimation strategies to multiply.
g. Solve problems requiring multiplication.
M3N4 Students will understand the meaning of division and develop the ability to apply it in problem
solving.
a. Understand the relationship between division and multiplication and between division and
subtraction.
b. Recognize that division may be two situations: the first is determining how many equal parts of agiven size or amount may be taken away from the whole as in repeated subtraction, and the second
is determining the size of the parts when the whole is separated into a given number of equal parts
as in a sharing model
c. Recognize problem-solving situations in which division may be applied and write corresponding
mathematical expressions.
When you divide to find the number of objects in each group, the division is called fair sharing or partitioning. For example:
A farmer is filling baskets of apples. The farmer has 24 apples and 4 baskets. If she divides them equally, how many apples
will she put in each basket?
When you divide to find the number of groups, the division is called measuring or repeated subtraction. It is easy to see that
you can keep subtracting 4 from 24 until you reach zero. Each 4 you subtract is a group or basket.
A farmer has 24 apples. She wants to sell them at 4 apples for $1.00. How many baskets of 4 can she fill?
Manipulatives and visual aids are important when teaching multiplication and division. Students have used arrays to illustrate
the multiplication process. Arrays can also illustrate division.
6
7/31/2019 3rd GradeMathCRCTStudyGuide2010
7/31
Since division is the inverse, or opposite, of multiplication, you can use arrays to help students understand how multiplication
and division are related. If in multiplication we find the product of two factors, in division we find the missing factor if the other
factor and the product are known.
In the multiplication model below, you multiply to find the number of counters in all. In the division model you divide to find
the number of counters in each group. The same three numbers are used. The model shows that division undoesmultiplication and multiplication undoes division. So when multiplying or dividing, students can use a fact from the inverse
operation. For example, since you know that 4 x 5 = 20, you also know the related division fact 20 4 = 5 or20 5 = 4.
Students can also check their work by using the inverse operation.
Notice that the numbers in multiplication and division sentences have special names. In multiplication the numbers you
multiply are called factors; the answer is called the product. In division the number being divided is the dividend, thenumber that divides it is the divisor, and the answer is the quotient. Discuss the relationship of these numbers as you
explain how multiplication and division are related.
There are other models your students can use to explore the relationship between multiplication and division. Expose your
students to the different models and let each student choose which model is most helpful to him or her. Here is an example
using counters to multiply and divide.

Another strategy your students may find helpful is using a related multiplication fact to divide. The lesson Relating
Multiplication and Division focuses on this strategy. Here is an example.
18 6 = ?
Think: 6 x ? = 18 Six times what number is 18?
6 x 3 = 18,
so 18 6 = 3.
When students understand the concept of division, they can proceed to explore the rules for dividing with 0 and 1. Lead
students to discover the rules themselves by having them use counters to model the division. A few examples follow.
Divide 4 counters into 4 groups.
8
7/31/2019 3rd GradeMathCRCTStudyGuide2010
9/31
4 4 = 1
Divide 2 counters into 2 groups.
2 2 = 1
When any number except 0 is divided by itself, the quotient is 1.
Put 3 counters in 1 group. Put 5 counters in 1 group.
3 1 = 3 5 1 = 5
When any number is divided by 1, the quotient is that number.
Divide 0 counters into 2 groups.
0 2 = 0
Divide 0 counters into 4 groups.
0 4 = 0
When 0 is divided by any number except 0, the quotient is 0.
Divide 6 counters into 0 groups. Divide 1 counter into 0 groups.
You cannot divide a number by 0.
Encourage students to think about the relationship between multiplication and division when they solve problems. For
example, they can use a related multiplication fact to find the unit cost of an itemfor example the cost of one baseball cap
priced at 3 for $18.
9
7/31/2019 3rd GradeMathCRCTStudyGuide2010
10/31
$18 3 = $6
Think: 3 x ? = $18
3 x $6 = $18
So $18 3 = ?
The cost is $6 for one baseball cap.
Dividing by Repeated SubtractionsThe result of division is to separate a group of objects into several equal smaller groups. The starting group
is called the dividend. The number of groups that are separated out is called the divisor. The number of objectsin each smaller group is called the quotient.
ex: 24 divided by 6 (24 / 6 = 4)24 is the Dividend
6 is the divisorand the quotient is 4
Which means 24 can be divided into 4 equal parts of 6 each.
The results of division can be obtained by repeated subtraction. If we are separating 24 objects into 4 equalgroups of six, we would take (or subtract) six objects at a time from the large group and place them in 4 equal
groups. In mathematical terms this would be: 24-6-6-6-6.M3N4
d. Explain the meaning of a remainder in division in different circumstances.
e. Divide a 2- and 3- digit number by a 1- digit divisor.
f. Solve problems requiring division.
g. Use mental math strategies to divide.
If you divide 13 bananas evenly betweenJoe and Sally, how much does each oneget?
13 2 = ?
We say that Joe and Sally both get 6 bananas and one is left over. The leftover banana iscalled the remainder. Or, if we don't want leftovers or remainders, both would get 6 1/2bananas.
13 2 = 6, remainder 1.

Units of Length
When measuring length in the customary system the common units used are inches, feet, yards, and miles. Units of length measure height, width,
length, depth, and distance.
People use "feet" to measure their height. Construction worker and architects use feet to measure walls, f loors, and ceilings. It is also used to determine
one point to another.

A rhombus is a four-sided shape where all sides have equal length. Also opposite sides are parallel andopposite angles are equal. Another interesting thing is that the diagonals (dashed lines in second figure) of
a rhombus bisect each other at right angles
The Square
means "right angle"
show equal sides
A square has equal sides and every angle is a right angle (90). Also opposite sides are parallel. A square
also fits the definition of a rectangle (all angles are 90), and a rhombus (all sides are equal length).
The Parallelogram
Opposite sides are parallel and equal in length, and opposite angles are
equal (angles "a" are the same, and angles "b" are the same)
The Trapezoid
A trapezoid has one pair of opposite sides parallel.

Acute Angles
An acute angle is one which is less than 90
Right Angles
A right angle is an internal angle which is equal to 90
Obtuse Angles
An obtuse angle is one which is more than 90 but less than 180
Straight Angle
A straight angle is 180 degrees
M3G1d. Identify the center, diameter, and radius of a circle
A circle is easy to make:
Draw a curve that is "radius" away
from a central point.
And so:
All points are the same distance
from the center.

Radius and Diameter
The Radius is the distance from the center to the edge.
The Diameter starts at one side of the circle, goes through thecenter and ends on the other side.
So the Diameter is twice the Radius:
Diameter = 2 Radius
M3M3c. Determine the perimeter of a geometric figure by measuring and summing/adding the lengths of
the sides.
Perimeter
The distance around a two-dimensional shape.
Example: the perimeter of this rectangle is
a+b+a+b = 2(a+b)
The perimeter of a circle is called the
circumference.

Data Analysis and Probability: 5% = 3 questionsStudents will gather, organize, and display data and interpret graphs.
M3D1.Students will gather, organize and display data and interpret graphs.
a. Solve problems by organizing and displaying data in charts, tables and graphs.
b. Construct and interpret line plot graphs, pictographs, Venn diagrams, and bar graphs using scale
increments of 1,2,5 and 10.
Graph definedLine plot A diagram that organizes data using a number line.Line graph A graph that uses lines to show changes in data over time.
Bar graph A graph in which information is shown by means of rectangular bars.
Pictograph A graph in which information is shown by means of pictures or symbols.
Circle graph A graph that represents data as part of a circle.
Venn diagram Two or more overlapping circles that show the relationship between sets(similarity/differences).
Line Plot
Suppose thirty people live in an apartment building. These are the
following ages:
58, 30, 37, 36, 34, 49, 35, 40, 47, 47, 39, 54, 47, 48, 54, 50, 35, 40, 38, 47,
48, 34, 40, 46, 49, 47, 35, 48, 47, 46

Your first step should be: placing the values in numerical order.
30, 34, 34, 35, 35, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 40, 40, 46, 46, 47, 47, 47, 47, 47,
47, 48, 48, 48, 49, 49, 50, 54, 54, 58
Now create your graph.
This graph shows all the ages of the people who live in the apartment building. It showsthe youngest person is 30, and the oldest is 58. Most people in the building areover 46 years of age. The most common age is 47.
Line plots allow several features of the data to become more obvious.For example, outliers, clusters, and gaps are apparent.
Outliers are data points whose values are significantly larger or smaller than othervalues, such as the ages of 30, and 58.
Clusters are isolated groups of points, such as the ages of 46 through 50.
Gaps are large spaces between points, such as 41 and 45.
Line Graphs
A line graph is a way to summarize how two pieces of information are related and how they vary
depending on one another. The numbers along a side of the line graph are called the scale.

Circle Graph
The circle graph below shows the ingredients used to make a sausage and mushroom pizza. The fraction of each
ingredient by weight shown in the pie chart below is now given as a percent. Again, we see that half of the pizza's
weight, 50%, comes from the crust. Note that the sum of the percent sizes of each slice is equal to 100%.
Graphically, the same information is given, but the data labels are different. Always be aware of how any chart orgraph is labeled.
