Your third grader is deepening their understanding of cause and effect while learning to make more in-depth correlations. Our third grade language arts curriculum sharpens these skills through creative writing and vocabulary building. In math, kids focus on developing logic using the four mathematical operations, foundations of algebra, geometry, and statistics. In science, kids use scientific inquiry through interactive lessons as they study force, energy, weather, and space. In social studies, kids meet the character Vearl the Squirrel and apply inquiry-based learning to learning geography, history, civics, and economics.

Third graders' vocabulary is expanding rapidly and they are beginning to use language in more sophisticated ways like creative writing. Time4Learning encourages this growth through an integrated language arts approach where students apply reading writing and thinking skills within an engaging activity.

At Time4Learning Third Graders explore:

The stages of the writing process: planning, drafting, revising, editing, and publishing.
Vocabulary understanding that includes: synonyms, antonyms, prefixes, suffixes, homophones, and idioms.
Integrated thematic chapters on a variety of topics that encourage students to use reading, writing, and thinking skills together.

Third graders are starting to understand cause and effect and can make connections between abstract concepts. The Time4Learning curriculum harnesses these new abilities to extend understanding in key math concepts.

At Time4Learning third graders discover that:

Numeration and number theory help us understand the connections numbers have with each other.
The four operations are fundamental to math and are connected to each other.
Fractions and decimals are connected to each other and impact every day life.
Coordinate geometry can help us understand location and describe spatial relationships.

Third graders are developing strong interests in particular subjects or hobbies, which can lead to more focused learning and exploration. Time4Learning harnesses this through a comprehensive science approach using the 5E Model: Engage, Explore, Explain, Extend, and Evaluate.

At Time4Learning Third Graders discover that:

There are invisible forces of static electricity and magnetism as well as conductors, insulators and current electricity.
