Third Grade Math: An Overview

Guided Math is an environment in which students are afforded the opportunity to

work independently to build math skills, concepts, and strategies through the use of
teacher directed tasks and Math Work Stations. Guided Math is a time for students
to practice problem solving while reasoning, communicating, and making
connections among mathematical topics.
