Cross Up Hundreds Board: Students will experience patterns and problem solving on the Hundreds Board.; Format: lesson plan (grade 3 Mathematics); By Karen Bartlett.

Estimation Strategies Using Website Applets: This activity uses several applets that teach and reinforce estimation strategies. Shodor Education Foundation, Inc has granted permission for the use of the Shodor materials as part of the workshop- "Interactivate Your Bored Math Students."; Format: lesson plan (grade 3–4 Mathematics); By Bonnie Boaz.

Grocery Store Technology: Students will identify how technology has changed in an occupation over time. This is also an introductory rounding/estimation lesson using addition of money.; Format: lesson plan (grade 3 Information Skills, Computer Technology Skills, and Mathematics); By Barbara Crouch.

M&M Math: M&M Math provides students with hands-on activities. Students will be sorting objects, comparing whole numbers, writing fractions, performing addition, subtraction, and division problems with the use of manipulatives.; Format: lesson plan (grade 3 Mathematics); By Angela Gillie.

Piggin Out with Money: Students will work with money manipulatives to solve word problems that involve adding money amounts and making change. The lesson is introduced with the literature book, Pigs Will be Pigs. After solving the problems posed in the book, the students will work with partners to create their "pig problems". Assessment will require students to solve similar problems on a teacher made worksheet. When time allows, each student will have the opportunity to go to an Internet site to work with money problems and games.; Format: lesson plan (grade 3 English Language Arts, Computer Technology Skills, and Mathematics); By Cherry Rouse.

Shopping Spree: Students will practice counting money up to five dollars using grocery ads from local stores.; Format: lesson plan (grade 3 Mathematics); By Lauren Gary.

Story Problems Made Interesting: After introducing students to story problem stategies, students will be asked to write their own story problem(s). The problems must deal with real life situations. Fantasy worlds and silly situations are not allowed. Each student must also be able to solve their own problem(s). If the problems are not entered into a computer and saved on a disk by the students, then the teacher will compile groups of problems for the students to solve. The author's name of each problem should be attached to the problem. If a student needs help solving a problem, he/she is only allowed to ask the author of that problem for assistance.; Format: lesson plan (grade 3 Mathematics); By Tim Galliher.

Subtraction Sticks: Using craft sticks, students will practice subtraction of 2 and 3 digit numbers with renaming.; Format: lesson plan (grade 3 Mathematics); By Susan Fry.
