Math

 

This week, we will begin Module 3 which focuses on multiplication and division with units 0, 1, 6-9 and 10. We will complete Lessons 1-5 which address using the commutative property to find unknown facts for 6-9, applying both the distributive and commutative property, multiplying and dividing using a letter to represent the unknown, and counting by units of 6 and 7 to multiply and divide using number bonds to decompose.

 

Need help with homework? Search "Eureka Math, third grade, module 1 lesson ___" on YouTube :) Each day in class, we will be completing a portion (or all) of the problem set. Students are responsible for completing the corresponding homework pages for our daily lesson on Monday through Thursday each week. Please make sure your child is putting their workbook right back in their backpack after completing their homework. You will find all homework assignments written in their planner and on our class webpage.
