Calendar Math

In third grade there are so many standards that needs to be met by the end of the school year particularly in Math.

I have found that daily review of the math standards has been beneficial to my students in mastering 3rd Grade Math Standards.

This is how I have displayed the cards that I chose to review in my classroom.

This resource can be used as a daily review on specific standards.

Each poster can be printed on card stock and placed in a page protector, or it can be laminated for use with expo markers . These posters can also be used with the other standards posters as spiral review of all the standards during morning meeting.

Organize students in cooperative learning teams 

I organize my students heterogeneously.  The teams are grouped according to achievement levels. 

Place headers over each group

I printed a copy of an owl on card stock paper and cut it out. Next, I punched a hole on top of the card stock and placed yarn through it and hung it from the ceiling over each group.  

You can download headers for free here:

Place clothespins onto group headers 

I purchased clothespins from the dollar store and jazzed it up a little with paint and glitter.  I chose two different colors for different rewards.  The green pin is given for working cooperatively together.  The yellow pin is given when students do exceptionally well on a specific task.
