SC READY Grade 3 Math Practice

Grade 3 timing and tools

Online SC READY testing occurs during the final 20 school days of each district's instructional calendar. The district selects its own window, so there is no single statewide calendar date for every family.

Grade 3 practice is non-calculator unless an applicable accommodation permits otherwise.

Standards represented in this grade pack

• 3.DPSR.1.1: Collect and organize categorical and numerical data based on observations, surveys, experiments, and investigations with whole number values using tables, scaled picture graphs, scaled bar graphs, or dot plots. Use titles and labels. Limit scales to multiples of 1, 2, 5, and 10.
• 3.DPSR.1.2: Solve one-step, real-world situations using whole number data represented in tables, scaled picture graphs, scaled bar graphs, or dot plots. Limit scales to multiples of 1, 2, 5, and 10.
• 3.DPSR.2.1: Identify the possible outcomes of a simple event.
• 3.MGSR.1.1: Determine the area of squares and rectangles presented in relevant problems by covering the space with square units and counting the total number of units needed.
• 3.MGSR.1.2: Determine the perimeter of regular and irregular triangles and quadrilaterals with known side lengths.
• 3.MGSR.1.3: Determine if a real-world situation is an example of the need for finding the area or the perimeter of a figure.
• 3.MGSR.2.1: Determine the value of any collection of coins, not to exceed $5. Write the amount in the form of dollars and cents using the decimal notation. Limit to penny, nickel, dime, and quarter.
• 3.MGSR.2.2: Use analog and digital clocks to tell and record time to 1-minute intervals, identifying AM and PM.
• 3.MGSR.2.3: Solve problems involving addition and subtraction of time intervals to determine elapsed time to the nearest half hour.
• 3.MGSR.2.4: Estimate and measure length/distance to the nearest half inch and nearest whole centimeter.
• 3.MGSR.2.5: Determine which unit of liquid volume is most appropriate to measure in real-world situations. Limit to fluid ounces, cups, pints, quarts, gallons, milliliters, and liters.
• 3.MGSR.3.1: Describe and draw right, acute, obtuse, and straight angles. Identify these angle types in two-dimensional figures including triangles and quadrilaterals.
• 3.MGSR.3.2: Identify, describe, and draw points, lines, line segments, rays, intersecting lines, perpendicular lines, and parallel lines. Identify these in two-dimensional figures.
• 3.NR.1.1: Read, write, and represent whole numbers through the thousands period (0 to 999,999) on a number line and in standard form, base ten language, word form, and equations in expanded form.
• 3.NR.1.2: Compose and decompose 4-digit whole numbers in multiple ways using thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones.
• 3.NR.1.3: Compare two whole numbers up to 999,999 based on the place value of the digits using the symbols for is equal to (=), is less than (<), or is greater than (>).
• 3.NR.1.4: Round whole numbers from 0 to 1,000 to the nearest 10 or 100.
• 3.NR.2.1: Identify unit fractions as the quantity formed by one part when a whole is partitioned into 2, 3, 4, 6, or 8 equal-sized parts. Express each part as a unit fraction of the whole.
• 3.NR.2.2: Represent fractions from 0 to 1 using concrete, set, area, and linear models, and write them in standard form and word form. Limit denominators to 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8.
• 3.NR.2.3: Express whole numbers as fractions and identify fractions that are equivalent to whole numbers. Limit denominators to 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8.

• 3.NR.2.5: Recognize two fractions are equivalent. Limit denominators to 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8, and fractions should be limited to fractions between 0 and 1.
• 3.NR.2.6: Compare two fractions with the same numerator or same denominator based on the same size whole by reasoning about their size. Use the symbols for is equal to (=), is less than (<), or is greater than (>). Limit denominators to 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8, and fractions should be limited to fractions between 0 and 1.
