Area and Grids – Grade 3 Math Help with Area and Grids

By Stuart Ackerman

     In grade 3 math, your child will be introduced to measuring area and learning about square units.

     Your child will learn:

·       to measure area with square units

•  to describe the movement of shapes on a grid

     Your child should be familiar with the appropriate vocabulary related to grade 3 area and grids such as:

·       measure

·         area

•   square unit

How you can help your child at home:

1. Show your child an example of a floor plan or a map to show area.

     The more practice your child has with grade 3 area and grids the better his or her area and grid skills will become.
