The year kids level up
Third grade is a big jump! In math, kids learn multiplication and division and aim to know their facts by the end of the year: 7 × 8 = 56. They also add and subtract three-digit numbers with regrouping, work with fractions on a number line, and find area and perimeter. In reading, kids move into chapter books, find the main idea, use context clues and figure out the author's purpose. Grammar gets deeper with parts of speech and prefixes, and science brings forces and motion. For many kids, it's also the first year of state testing.
Third graders are ready for more independence. These moves give them the practice and confidence they need.
Count-by songs give kids a rhythm to hang facts on. Play the Counting By Fours Song before math and have kids skip count along. When they get stuck on 4 × 6, they can sing up to it.
Why it works: words set to a repeating melody are easier to recall than the same words spoken (Wallace, 1994).

Why it works: handing over the work step by step, from teacher to student, is one of the most widely used teaching frameworks (Pearson and Gallagher, 1983).
Try it withTriple Digit Subtraction Regroup WorksheetWorksheetsOpen it →Once a week, give a mixed multiplication and division practice page instead of a single-skill one. Kids have to decide which operation each problem needs. That decision-making is exactly what state tests ask for.
Why it works: shuffled practice teaches kids to choose the right strategy, not just repeat one, and it improved test scores in research (Rohrer and Taylor, 2007).

By the end of 3rd grade, kids should know multiplication and division facts within 100, add and subtract within 1,000, understand basic fractions, and find area and perimeter.
Third graders typically move into early chapter books and read for longer stretches on their own. They are expected to find the main idea, use context clues and explain what the author wants to say.
Practice a few facts a day with flash cards, songs or quick games. Start with 2s, 5s and 10s, then build up to the trickier 6s, 7s and 8s.
In most states, 3rd grade is the first year of state testing in reading and math. Short, low-stress practice in the test format helps kids feel ready.
