3rd Grade Mathematics Videos

This 3rd grade mathematics video from Genius Plaza covers word problems. Students will learn how to spot the "clues" (addition, subtraction, multiplication words) in word problems that can help them arrive at solutions, and will learn strategies for determining which "clues" are most valuable and helpful. This video can be used as part of a 3rd grade or differentiated lesson on multiplication, word problems, and place value.

In this video, Jackson uses his multiplication facts to divide by 2, 3, 4, and 5.

This video lesson demonstrates how to use arrays to find products. How many shampoo bottles can the display hold? To solve this problem, students build an array with place value blocks, break apart the array into tens and ones, and write a number sentence to represent this. Then, they add the partial products to find the product of the array.

In this video, Alex learns how to do subtraction in parts using place values

In this video, Jada uses a number line to do multiplication by skip counting.

In this video, Emily learns how to divide by using repeated subtraction.

In this video, Carlos learns about patterns in the multiplication of 2 and 5.

In this video, Carlos uses arrays to learn about the distributive property of multiplication.

In this video, Carlos uses the distributive property to simplify equations with 6 and 7 as factors.

In this video, Jackson learns how to use multiplication facts to figure out division facts.

This video lesson reviews how to rewrite expressions using the properties of operations: the commutative property of addition, the commutative property of multiplication, the associative property of addition, the associative property of multiplication, the identity property of addition, and the identity property of multiplication. This video provides sample problems for your class to solve as you review each property.
