Determine total objects when groups are combined or arranged in arrays up to 10×10.
Teachers can use 3.4D to sequence instruction on Equal groups/arrays and monitor progress toward mastery.
In Mathematics, 3.4D defines what success looks like for Equal groups/arrays—from core skills to real‑world use.
Start with concrete or familiar examples, connect to prior knowledge, model a clear process, and provide checks for understanding aligned to 3.4D.
Standard 3.4D describes the essential skills and understandings for Equal groups/arrays in Grade 3. It clarifies the learning outcomes and what successful work looks like.
It lays groundwork for the next grade by deepening accuracy and flexibility with Equal groups/arrays, so students can tackle more complex problems later.
Use short exit tickets and tasks where students explain decisions, show multiple representations, or justify answers—directly aligned to 3.4D.
