Overview

"Math Mammoth Grade 3-A Worktext (2024 edition) is the student book for the first half of grade 3, and part of the Math Mammoth Grade 3 complete curriculum. This book covers addition, subtraction, rounding, word problems, the concept of multiplication, multiplication tables, time, and money. The worktext contains both the necessary instruction and the problems & exercises (the 'text' & and the 'work'; thus a ""worktext""), and is fairly self-teaching. The curriculum meets and exceeds the Common Core standards. Please note this is a student worktext and does not contain the answers. The answer key book is available separately. Features Math Mammoth focuses on conceptual understanding. It explains the ""WHY"", so your children can understand the math, not just learn ""HOW"" to do it. Concepts are often explained with visual models, followed by exercises using those models. These visual models can take the place of manipulatives for many children; however, it is very easy to add corresponding manipulatives to the lessons if so desired. The curriculum is mastery-oriented. This means it concentrates fairly long on a topic, delving into its various aspects. This promotes conceptual understanding, as opposed to spiral curricula that often tend to jump from topic to topic too much. There is a strong emphasis on mental math and number sense. It requires very little teacher preparation, which is a big help to most parents. The curriculum has no separate teacher's manual nor is it scripted. The introduction to each chapter has some notes for the teacher concerning the material in the chapter. All the instruction is written directly to the student in the worktext, and there also exist accompanying videos where you can see Maria herself teach the material. After each chapter introduction, you will find a list of Internet links and resources (games, quizzes, animations, etc.) that can be used for fun, illustrations, and further practice."

Thank you for creating Mammoth Math! It is beautifully and incrementally organized to promote student learning, makes the kids think, has excellent problem solving throughout, and follows the Common Core better than most curricula. All this for a superb price, especially since teachers pay for much of what is provided in their classrooms! Cheryle Pope ------------------------------ I just wanted to tell you how much I love your math curriculum. I love the natural progression within the topic, the reviews and the cumulative reviews. I love the word problems that make them think and the puzzles too. My boys enjoy working in math and understand that some frustration and mistakes are all part of learning. I appreciate the simple rigor in this program. In the end, their long-term recall memory is great because of the progression and spiraling back with reviews and cumulative tests. It is just right for us. Thanks again, This satisfied mom: ) ---------------------------------- Last year, I used the light blue series with my 3rd grader in our first and only year of homeschool. This year, she returned to public school and was ranked in the 88th percentile on standardized beginning of the year math testing. What a relief to know Math Mammoth was what she needed to stay on grade level and in step with her peers! She's come home on several occasions beaming with pride with her success in math at school. Many, many thanks from a grateful mom!! Hilary E
