The lesson plan is set for 25 to 30 minutes. Its objectives are to reinforce 3rd grade place value and rounding, to build fluency in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division facts, and to solve single-step real-world word problems.

The plan begins with a quiet 5 minute warm-up in which students finish Section 1 on their own. The class then reviews the place value and addition answers together for 5 minutes, goes through Sections 2 and 3 for 10 minutes and ends with 10 minutes of independent or paired work on the Section 4 word problems.

The materials list the printed worksheets, pencils and scratch paper, and a whiteboard with dry-erase markers for teacher modeling.

Because the lesson is short, it fits at the start of a math block. You can also use one section a day over a week.

The answer sheet keeps the worksheet clean for reuse, and the answer key gives a short explanation after every answer.
