Number of Learners in Class: 3 - 10
Length of Class: 30 minutes
Type of Class: 9 weeks
Welcome to Math Grade 3 - our full-year program consists of three separate terms and two options for live weekly meetings.
Option 1: One live online meeting per week and includes curriculum. Each term is billed individually based on the number of weeks and will require individual enrolment.
Option 2: We also offer a second live weekly option for families wishing for additional math support. This option provides a second live online meeting weekly. This second meeting with the instructor helps ensure learners have ample time to practice and master concepts and allows for more in-depth exploration of material and testing (testing is optional to all families but only available with the second live meeting option). These secondary days must also be enrolled each term separately.
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
The main goals of mathematics education are to prepare students to:
- Use mathematics confidently to solve problems
- Communicate and reason mathematically
- Commit themselves to lifelong learning
This live online, instructor-led math class will help your learner thrive in mathematics this year. The course includes all curriculum (meets or exceeds all provincial curricular standards). Learners will attend live online instruction and be given homework completely throughout the week. The course will include marked assignments, projects, and an end-of-term written summary to assist in documenting learner understanding—families wishing to have learners complete testing will need to also enrol in the twice-weekly option.
NOTE:
No classes on statutory holidays or Easter Monday (Oct 10th, Nov 11th, Apr 7th, Apr 10 and May 22nd).
No classes during winter break Dec 19th - 30th 2022
No classes during spring break Mar 13 - 24th 2023
Patterns:
· creating patterns using concrete, pictorial, and numerical representations
· representing increasing and decreasing patterns in multiple ways
· generalizing what makes the pattern increase or decrease (e.g., doubling, adding 2)
Pattern rules:
· from a concrete pattern, describing the pattern rule using words and numbers
· predictability in song rhythm and patterns
3D shapes:
· identifying 3D shapes according to the 2D shapes of the faces and the number of edges and vertices (e.g., construction of nets, skeletons)
· describing the attributes of 3D shapes (e.g., faces, edges, vertices)
· identifying 3D shapes by their mathematical terms (e.g., sphere, cube, prism, cone, cylinder)
· comparing 3D shapes (e.g., How are rectangular prisms and cubes the same or different?)
· understanding the preservation of shape (e.g., the orientation of a shape will not change its properties)
One-to-one correspondence:
· collecting data, creating a graph, and describing, comparing, and discussing the results
· choosing a suitable representation
Simulated events:
· using comparative language (e.g., certain, uncertain; more, less, or equally likely)
· developing an understanding of chance (e.g., tossing a coin creates a 50-50 chance of landing a head or tail; drawing from a bag, using spinners,
and rolling dice all simulate probability events)
