I used this is my class! the kids loved it. It was so useful!
I have used this with my grand-daughter to help her better understand the different concepts/standards.
I am a special educator in a co-taught third grade classroom, and my colleague and I use this for daily independent review that we hand out weekly as part of our math routine. We print out this version and modify it to make another version for students with math IEPs. All students have 5 minutes and need to complete it all on their own and without getting up from their seats. We use it to help students practice skipping difficult problems, trying what they know, and practicing what they do. On Thursdays, they turn it in, we correct it, and then we highlight 3-5 problems for them to go back and fix or try on Friday during review time.
It is a comprehensive review sheet that covers many critical third grade skills. My only complaint is that, since we are using it at the beginning or middle of the school year, it reviews skills that have not yet been taught (e.g. fractions, area/perimeter). We have found it to be easy to fix by previewing the skill briefly before having students start their review sheets that day.
Love these passages. They are helpful and engaging for my students, but they are a little expensive with my teacher budget.
Love this resource and the practice it gives students. Wish it was multiple choice for my 3rd graders.
