Description

Do your third grade students need more practice with finding area? Are you looking for engaging, rigorous games that will help students with this important skill (without taking hours to prep!)? Look no further! These print AND digital activities will meet your grade 3 students' needs. There are four area games to help students practice their math skills - in a fun way! They align with 3.MD.5-7. These 3rd grade math activities are great forfinding the area by counting unit squares or multiplying the length times width.

WHAT'S INCLUDED? (PRINT AND DIGITAL)

Game 1: I'm Bigger! No, I'm Bigger!

Students find the area of each rectangle. Then, they put an arrow next to the rectangle with the larger area.

Game 2: Shade It In

Students change the size of the colored box to show the area at the bottom.

Game 3: Find an Area Of...

Students put a circle on the model that shows the area correctly.

Game 4: Count It Up

Students find the area of the shape by counting the unit squares. Then, they type the answer in the yellow box.

HOW TO IMPLEMENT:

There are 11 problems included in each of the 4 games (total of 44 questions).

Digitally: The first problem is always an example for students so they know what to do. I would recommend completing 5 questions during your lesson together and assigning the other 5 for students to complete independently.

Print: Print the task cards out and put them in a math center. Have students record answers on the recording sheet provided. Students can use the self-checking answer key to check their work. You can choose between the color and black and white option.

Aligns with Common Core 3.MD.5:

  • Recognize area as an attribute of plane figures and understand concepts of area measurement.

Aligns with Common Core 3.MD.6:

  • Measure areas by counting unit squares (square cm, square m, square in, square ft, and improvised units).

Aligns with Common Core 3.MD.7:

  • Relate area to the operations of multiplication and addition.

This aligns with 2nd Grade Texas TEKS:

  • TEKS 2.9F: use concrete models of square units to find the area of a rectangle by covering it with no gaps or overlaps, counting to find the total number of square units, and describing the measurement using a number and the unit

This aligns with 3rd Grade Texas TEKS:

  • TEKS 3.6C: determine the area of rectangles with whole number side lengths in problems using multiplication related to the number of rows times the number of unit squares in each row
  • TEKS 3.6D: decompose composite figures formed by rectangles into non-overlapping rectangles to determine the area of the original figure using the additive property of area
  • TEKS 3.7B: determine the perimeter of a polygon or a missing length when given perimeter and remaining side lengths in problems

This aligns with Florida BEST Standards (B.E.S.T.)

  • MA.3.GR.2.1 Explore area as an attribute of a two-dimensional figure by covering the figure with unit squares without gaps or overlaps. Find areas of rectangles by counting unit squares.
  • MA.3.GR.2.2 Find the area of a rectangle with whole-number side lengths using a visual model and a multiplication formula.
