3.G.1

Understand that shapes in

different categories (e.g.,

rhombuses, rectangles, and

others) may share attributes

(e.g., having four sides),and that

the shared attributes can define

a larger category(e.g.,

quadrilaterals). Recognize

rhombuses, rectangles, and

squares as examples of

quadrilaterals, and draw

examples of quadrilaterals that

do not belong to any of these

subcategories.

• How do you

describe angles?

• What is a

polygon?

• How can you

describe triangles?

• How do you

describe and

classify

quadrilaterals?

• What

generalizations

can be made

about polygons?

3.OA.7

Fluently multiply and divide

within 100, using strategies such

as the relationship between

multiplication and division (e.g.,

knowing that 8 × 5 = 40, one

knows 40 ÷ 5 = 8) or properties of

operations. By the end of Grade

3, know from memory all

products of two one-digit

numbers.

Identify arithmetic patterns

(including patterns in the

addition table or multiplication

table), and explain them using

properties of operations. For

example, observe that 4 times a

number is always even, and

explain why 4 times a number

can be decomposed into two

equal addends.
