Free downloads!! You can download these Third Grade Arithmetic Facts Practice Sheets for free from our

website: . On this website, there are also sheets designed for fourth and fifth

grade, as well as a bookstore (Making Math Meaningful? books) and online workshops for teachers.

Facts of the Week! (See next page.) These sheets are the centerpiece of a 20-week program. Five new

facts are introduced each week (except for the first week). We recommend that the teacher writes the

week¡¯s new facts on the board and works with these new facts in a variety of ways with the whole class one

week before they appear for the first time on the practice sheets. Then, in the next week, the students see

these facts on the practice sheets multiple times. These same facts are then reviewed systematically on the

practice sheets in the subsequent weeks.

Timing and rhythm. The third grade year should begin with a review and strengthening of the

multiplication tables that were learned in second grade. Work with these practice sheets should then

begin in the second or third month of third grade. One practice sheet should be done (nearly) every

day until the whole set of 100 sheets is completed. There are 20 weeks (100 days) of sheets in this set.

Each sheet has 30 problems.

Completion. Since these sheets are designed to be an integral part of learning the arithmetic facts, it is

important that each sheet of the entire set be completed, otherwise certain facts won¡¯t get adequate

exposure.

Caution! This should be fun and easy for the students. If successful, their confidence will grow. If it is too

difficult, then it is likely that more work with the facts and the multiplication tables needs to be done with

the class as a whole. It is important to make sure that these sheets don¡¯t become torture for the students.

Try to de-emphasize the importance of speed. Help the students to realize that improvement is the goal.

Daily math practice:

? The 30 problems listed on a particular sheet are only one part of the daily math practice. It would be

very unfortunate if daily math practice consisted of nothing more than the 30 arithmetic facts practice

problems that appear on these sheets.

? When the class is not in a math main lesson, daily math practice should take about 10 minutes. The 30

arithmetic facts may take 3-5 minutes. The remaining 5-7 minutes can be spent doing a couple of

written (vertical) arithmetic problems, some brief rhythmical work, or something else.

? When the class is in a math main lesson, daily math practice should take about 30 minutes. The 30

arithmetic facts may take 3-5 minutes. After that, the remaining 25 minutes of math practice (during a

math main lesson) consists of the material that was brought in previous blocks and the current block.

? Mental arithmetic. The teacher may decide to read the first 6 problems from the practice sheet out loud.

? Extra math practice problems. The teacher should write a few extra problems on the board. The

students can copy these problems into their practice books and work out the answers. These problems

also include practice and review of material covered in previous math blocks.

? Challenge problems. Every day, there should be a challenging problem or two in order to keep the

advanced students fully engaged.

What comes next? The next set of practice sheets is titled Fourth Grade Arithmetic Facts Review Sheets

and is intended to thoroughly review the math facts that were covered on these Third Grade Practice Sheets.

The hope is that by practicing these arithmetic facts just five minutes per day, the whole class will

effortlessly learn their arithmetic facts by heart by the end of third grade.

And what happens if we get to the end of third grade and the class still isn¡¯t very strong with these

arithmetic facts? Don¡¯t worry¡­this work continues in fourth grade.
