Teacher Tips:
If Math homework looks new to you, that’s
because things have changed in the past few
years!  In Addition, we now refer to
regrouping as “composing tens or hundreds.”
As we start getting into subtraction, we will be
“decomposing” numbers instead of borrowing.
Please check the Math resources available on
our Third Grade Rocks website for further
explanation and examples of strategies taught
in class.
