Welcome to the weekend!
We had another great week here in third grade! I am sure you have all heard about our five minute times tests. Our class loves the personal competition and each student has been making great strides in his or her knowledge of multiplication and division facts.
I would like to encourage your family to continue your work with flash cards to help your child with quick recall. Flash cards are a great tool to help your student, however I do understand that they can get monotonous at times. I wanted to provide your families with a few other possible resources to help your child continue to improve his or her math skills. Below I have posted a few websites that I highly encourage you and your family to explore!
Have a great long weekend!
3rd Grade Math Games
This website combines entertainment with math support. A variety of games are offered through this website to help your student improve his or her multiplication skills. There are also a few other games that you can use as a review for other types of math skills such as telling time, counting money, and adding two and three digit numbers. This website is truly fun for both parents and students!
IXL
Math IXL is one of the best math resources around. The website is very user friendly and there is material for Pre-K through high school geometry. I would recommend that this website be a resource you hang onto throughout your child's education. For third grade, this website offers support for 21 different math concepts, including addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and fractions. Each concept has a variety of activities for your student to explore and learn from.
3rd Grade Math Skill Builders
I love this website because it offers more games that support math skills. Unlike the other websites, most of the activities on this website provide the students with word problems. Word problems will allow your student to think critically about the world. Also, many of the activities integrate a variety of math concepts, such as money and multiplication.
