Year 3 Maths

You’ll explore the subject through varied and frequent practice with mathematical problems that will aid understanding and the ability to recall and apply knowledge. You’ll learn to follow a line of enquiry, solve problems and justify your answer, while enhancing your grasp of mathematical language. The aim of the Year 3 Maths Course is to help you develop a mathematical mind that you can use to break down problems and seek solutions.

By studying this course, you will learn to:

• Count in multiples of 4, 8, 50, 100, recognising place value along with ordering numbers up to 1000.
• Estimate numbers using representations, read and write numbers in numerals and words while solving practical problems.
• Add and subtract numbers with three digits, inverse operations and estimate answers.
• Use 3, 4 and 8 multiplication tables to complete multiplication and division using mental and formal methods, while solving practical problems.
• Count in tenths, using unit and non-unit fractions, showing equivalent fractions, while completing addition and subtraction of fractions.
• Measure lengths, mass, volume, perimeter, and how to use money.
• Read the time, using roman numerals and a digital clock, while gaining knowledge of time in the calendar.
• Draw 2D and 3D shapes and be able to identify angles.
• Recognise right angles, horizontal and vertical lines, and pairs of perpendicular and parallel lines.
• Present data in bar charts, pictograms and tables.

Designed for those who are soon to undertake or currently undertaking Year 3 Maths, this course will aid children who are eager to learn, practise and gain a better understanding of mathematical concepts and those who may need additional guidance outside the classroom setting.

The course helps children to gain a firm grasp on their studies, building on the knowledge from the previous year’s study, and allowing them to get to grips with challenges in future learning - preparing them with a solid foundation for Year 4 Maths.

This course has also been designed for those looking to home educate their children and to make learning at home fun!
