Winter Themed Math Centers for Third Graders

Are you looking for some winter themed math centers for your third graders?  I use these winter themed math centers as a fun and engaging way of practicing skills that have already been taught to students.

When to Use Math Centers

I start my math block with a spiral math review and a quick math fact practice. We follow this up with a whole group lesson and then split up to work on small group lessons and math centers.

The Purpose of Math Centers

I strongly believe that the purpose of math centers is for students to review those previously taught concepts so that they can have additional practice and gain mastery with those skills. They allow students to work independently while I am working with a small group.

Winter Themed Math Centers for Third Graders

Here are the math centers that I use during the winter months.  The math skills covered in these five math centers activities include:

* Telling time (this includes differentiated cards for telling time to the hour, half hour, quarter hour, five minute intervals, and to the minute).

* Elapsed Time.  Word Problems and Problem Solving With Elapsed Time.

* Addition and Subtraction With Regrouping

* Multiplication Facts

* Word Problems With Multiplication and Division

Math Center Accountability

I have included recorded sheets and answer keys for four of the centers.
