How to help with this skill

Third graders begin to use multiplication, division, fractions and measurement regularly. Discuss which operation fits the question.

  • Identify the starting amount and the part being removed or compared.
  • Use counting back, a number line, or place-value regrouping.
  • Check by adding your answer to the amount removed.

Try this: Ask: What was there at the beginning, and what changed?
