Reference Sheet - Strategies for Comparing Fractions

This Inclusive Classifying Quadrilaterals Flowchart is a clear, student-friendly visual designed to help students classify quadrilaterals using the inclusive model required by Florida B.E.S.T. Standards (MA.3.GR.1.1). Students analyze key attributes such as the number of parallel sides, right angles, and equal side lengths to correctly identify quadrilaterals including kites, trapezoids, parallelograms, rectangles, rhombi, and squares. The flowchart supports higher-order thinking (DOK 2)

This file contains 3 sets (25 cards each) of perimeter task cards, and a multiple choice answer sheet. I use the color dot stickers and metal rings to seperate sets. On the answer key, student circle the color of the dot on the cards (green, yellow, pink, or orange).

This is a set of 12 different boards that can be used in math stations. It includes various money amounts, including: pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, half-dollars, $1, $5, and $10.

I use this PowerPoint as a fun way to review for the third grade math FSA. I divide the students up into teams and they use their white boards to show work and display the answer. There are 101 questions and answer slides (202 slides total).

This is a fun review I use when returning from Thanksgiving break. I buy the Little Debbie, individually wrapped gingerbread men. This file includes 9 pages (but the packet is actually 3 pages). The additional pages are different variations of the circle graph and bar graph. This includes circle graphs with 12, 16, 20, and 24 divisions. Bar graphs for 1-20 (counting by 1's and counting by 2's) and 1-24 (counting by 1's and counting by 2's).

Three sets of 12 task cards.

Great for the first week of school. I included two graph pages - one to use that counts to 5 or you can use the graph that counts to 10 depending on how many students have birthdays in the same month. I rarely have a class that has more than five birthdays in the same month.

This presentation includes 91 slides of FCAT math vocabulary terms. The slides are timed, and I simply play the presentation during short breaks (bathroom, transition, etc.) as a way of helping them gain multiple exposures to the information.

2 sets of 25 geometry task cards with multiple choice answer sheet.

3 set of 10 elapsed time task cards.

Area and Perimeter Study Guide Includes finding the missing length and how the Distributive Property relates to area.

This is great visual representation of place value concepts. I copy each place value on a different color paper. Place value through millions.
