3.OA.1: : Interpret products of whole numbers (e.g., interpret 5 × 7 as the total number of objects in 5 groups of 7 objects each).

3.OA.2: : Interpret whole-number quotients of whole numbers (e.g., interpret 56 ÷ 8 as the number of objects in each share when 56 objects are partitioned equally into 8 shares, or as a number of shares when 56 objects are partitioned into equal shares of 8 objects each).

3.OA.3: : Use multiplication and division numbers up to 100 to solve word problems in situations involving equal groups, arrays, and measurement quantities (e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem).

3.OA.4: : Determine the unknown whole number in a multiplication or division equation relating three whole numbers.

3.NF.2: : Understand a fraction as a number on the number line; represent fractions on a number line diagram.

3.NF.2.a: : Represent a fraction 1/b (e.g., 1/4) on a number line diagram by defining the interval from 0 to 1 as the whole and partitioning it into b (e.g., 4) equal parts.

3.NF.2.b: : Represent a fraction a/b (e.g., 2/8) on a number line diagram or ruler by marking off a lengths 1/b (e.g., 1/8) from 0. Recognize that the resulting interval has size a/b (e.g., 2/8) and that its endpoint locates the number a/b (e.g., 2/8) on the number line.

3.NF.3: : Explain equivalence of fractions in special cases, and compare fractions by reasoning about their size.

3.NF.3.a: : Understand two fractions as equivalent if they are the same size (modeled) or the same point on a number line.

3.NF.3.b: : Recognize and generate simple equivalent fractions (e.g., 1/2 = 2/4, 4/6 = 2/3). Explain why the fractions are equivalent (e.g., by using a visual fraction model).

3.NF.3.c: : Express and model whole numbers as fractions, and recognize and construct fractions that are equivalent to whole numbers.

3.NF.3.d: : Compare two fractions with the same numerator or the same denominator by reasoning about their size. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with the symbols >, =, or

3.MD: : Measurement and Data

3.MD.2: : Estimate and measure liquid volumes and masses of objects using standard units of grams (g), kilograms (kg), and liters (l). (Excludes compound units such as cm³ and finding the geometric volume of a container.) Add, subtract, multiply, or divide to solve and create one-step word problems involving masses or volumes that are given in the same units (e.g., by using drawings, such as a beaker with a measurement scale, to represent the problem).

3.MD.9: : Relate area to the operations of multiplication and addition.

3.MD.9.a: : Find the area of a rectangle with whole-number side lengths by tiling it, and show that the area is the same as would be found by multiplying the side lengths.

3.MD.9.b: : Multiply side lengths to find areas of rectangles with whole number side lengths in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems, and represent whole-number products as rectangular areas in mathematical reasoning.

3.MD.9.c: : Use area models (rectangular arrays) to represent the distributive property in mathematical reasoning. Use tiling to show in a concrete case that the area of a rectangle with whole-number side lengths a and b + c is the sum of a x b and a x c

3.MD.9.d: : Recognize area as additive. Find areas of rectilinear figures by decomposing them into non-overlapping rectangles and adding the areas of the non-overlapping parts, applying this technique to solve real-world problems.
