Fun With Division: Students will learn division concepts through the use of "The Doorbell Rang" by Pat Hutchins and a poem entitled "Dividing up Bugs." Students will be involved in hands on activities in order to gain an understanding of division. This lesson plan integrates communication skills, math, and technology.; Format: lesson plan (grade 3 English Language Arts and Mathematics); By Grace Blythe.

The Grapes of Math: The book The Grapes of Math is an excellent motivational picture book that models how to use different “thinking” skills to solve word problems by employing a variety of computation strategies. By reading and discussing the possible solutions to the examples provided in the text, students will begin to visualize possible methods to use when trying to solve word problems. Using other word problems to practice the application of these various strategies will enhance the students' abilities to recognize and then apply successful strategies for problem solving.; Format: lesson plan (grade 3–5 Computer Technology Skills and Mathematics); By Deborah Cook.

A Math Story!: This lesson plan is designed to use a basic third grade math fact as a prompt to write and illustrate a math story. A hands on math activity using math manipulatives will serve as the focus and review for this lesson. A writing activity will serve as a conclusion as well as an assessment for understanding.; Format: lesson plan (grade 3 English Language Arts and Mathematics); By Sherrill Haltigan.
