Ordinal positions, rational fraction models, and standard metric measures structure Grade 3 Mathematics in Term 3, allocating 41 practical numeracy lessons across 10 pages. Exercises correlate with the KLB Grade 3 Learner’s Book and incorporate concrete manipulatives.
Classroom learning develops mathematical reasoning through systematically graded strands:
- Ordinal Numbers and Counting: identifying object positions from 1st to 20th, counting forward and backward in fives up to 1000, and building abacus place values during weeks 1 and 2.
- Fractions and Basic Operations: folding paper shapes into halves, quarters, and eighths, alongside multi-digit addition and subtraction problems across weeks 3 to 5.
- Multiplication and Division: practising multiplication tables using dot arrays, sharing counters equally, and solving basic measurement word problems in week 6.
- Measurement and Geometry: measuring length, mass, and capacity in metric units, reading analog clock faces, managing pocket money, and naming plane shapes across weeks 7 to 9.
