Visual introduction to square number patterns . Useful as a visual introduction to exploring square numbers and/or as a lesson starter.
A square is slowly built by adding the next odd number of squares to the first to make a bigger square (number).
3 animated slides (don't bore your students too much, just use 1 a lesson)
*Slide 1 uses a growing pattern of odd numbers in an addition sentence (underneath the square) to create square numbers.
*Slide 2 uses the above plus the matching multiplication sentence.
*Slide 3 uses the visual and only the multiplication sentence.
I like to show slide 1 with just the addition sentence first off and impress my students with my quick fire maths skills ;-) "1+3+5+7+11+13+15+17+19+21+23 = 135". The following day I'll teach them the trick of multiplication. A few of my higher ability will be able to answer the addition sentences on their own at the end of a lesson.
You'll need a bit of patience as the squares reveal themselves.
Hope students around the world enjoy it (?) and that it makes multiplication that little more understandable.
Please rate and comment politely, all my resources are shared freely.

More or Less Homework?? Discussion Activity
Designed to allow me to evaluate the group work skills of a group of four grade 3 students and to see if they are demonstrating 'cooperative learning behaviours'.
I hope that it has been designed to encourage the exchange of ideas (exploratory and cumulative talk) and not just work out the logistics of completion (presentational and or argumentative talk).
[However, it will require explaining and modelling]
It is, (I think) a 'meaningful open-ended task' and has been worded so that students can interpret each reason as a pro or a con(:so that they can 'create their own meaning')
Furthermore, it is difficult enough for there to be a potential of failure if they don't work collaboratively.
Based on research articles and designed specifically for grade 3 international (inc. some high level ESL) students to complete in 20-25 minutes.
Sentences need to make sense. The order of the words in a sentence can change the meaning of the sentence.
Students read the two sentences and choose the one that makes the most sense.
e.g.
Ben ate a hotdog.
A hotdog ate Ben.
EAL or ESL homework activity.
Homophones are words that sound the same but are spelt differently and have different meanings. e.g. to, too and two
Students have to circle the correct word (homophone) for each sentence.

Differentiated worksheets designed to assist learners with the mental addition strategy of partitioning ones into helpful parts to reach and bridge a three-digit number. The worksheets utilize the part-part-whole model to partition the ones, allowing students to discover the number bond to ten, which in turn helps them arrive at the next ten. By adding the remaining part, students can find the final answer.
The worksheets are differentiated into four levels, (I use them with my year 3 class) catering to learners’ varying abilities. Additionally, each set includes five large sheets, ideal for small group teaching.
