How it works

Every lesson follows the same calm pattern, so your group always knows what comes next and you never have to plan.

1

Teach once

Open the grown-up page. It tells you what to say, what to watch for, and gives answers for all three levels.

2

Pick a level

Circle gives more support, triangle is on level, star is a stretch. Same skill, same day.

3

Short lessons

About 15 to 20 minutes each, with big boxes to write in and a picture whenever it helps.

What's inside

6 scripted lessons
Each with a one-page grown-up script: warm up, I do, we do, you do, plus what to watch for and answers for every level.
Three levels on every page
A circle, triangle and star page for every lesson, all practicing the same skill on the same day.
From Count the Squares to Same Area, New Shape
1. Count the Squares; 2. Rows Times Columns; 3. Break It Apart; 4. Walk the Fence; 5. The Missing Side; 6. Same Area, New Shape.
The Tiles and Fence method
Area is the tiles: the squares that cover the inside, shown as light tinted squares. Perimeter is the fence: the walk around the edge, shown as a bold orange outline with the side lengths. Every page shows the same two pictures, so a child never mixes them up. Big L shapes are solved the Make It, Break It way: cut the shape into two rectangles, find each part, and add.
Show What You Know check
A one-page check at the end, with answers and what to do next.

Questions

Is this a full curriculum?

It is one complete third grade math skill, taught in six lessons. Each title in the 3rd Grade Math series covers a different skill, and the 3rd Grade Math Skills Bundle has all seven.

How do I choose a level?

Start at triangle. If a page is easy and correct, move up to star. If it brings tears, step down to circle. The skills match, so moving is easy.

Do I need any other materials?

A pencil, a crayon or highlighter for the fence, and a handful of square tiles or paper squares if you have them. Grid paper helps for Lesson 6.

Can I print only one level?

Yes. Each lesson has one grown-up page, then the circle, triangle and star pages. The Start Here page lists the exact pages.

How do I get my files?

Right after checkout you'll see download buttons, and we email you a link too. Everything is saved in My Library to re-download anytime.

Will it print in black and white?

Yes. Every page is designed to print clean in black and white on a home printer or a school copier.

Can I use it with a whole class?

Yes. One purchase covers one classroom or one family. Buying for several teachers or a whole school? See school licenses.

What if I have a problem or a question?

Because these are instant digital downloads, all sales are final. If something isn't working the way you hoped, or you have any question at all, email hello@wiggle-wise.com and we'll help.
