Third Grade, Math, Set Six

We worked through the book, Safari Adventure, by Deborah Underwood. This book takes you on a safari in Africa to make graphs from the data they give you. It was a fun way to do more work with graphing. The last two graphs are made on the computer, using Create a Graph.

I printed out some work pages to practice:

• reading time
• drawing time
• calculating elapsed time
• using a calendar

We completed more pages in Map Skills Made Fun: Neighborhoods and Communities.

We started practicing our skip count sheets out of order.

In geometry:

• we made flat and solid shapes of clay
• we reviewed what a polygon is, and made a poster
• we reviewed edge, vertex, and face, using signs and counting them on our clay shapes

 

• we cut a shape out of the clay with a cookie cutter and practiced: slide, flip, and turn
