Your child’s first three years of math in elementary school will be a golden period for honing their arithmetic skills. Not only will they be toying with multiplication and division operations – usually for the first time – but they’ll also be improving their ability to do addition and subtraction, which can be considered the bread and butter of basic math. There is a small spike in difficulty in this year as they’re going to be adding or subtracting numbers with three digits as opposed to two, but with consistent practice, they’ll get the hang of it in no time. To help your child develop their math abilities at home or at school, we’ve prepared these Grade 3 addition and subtraction worksheets on this page for your convenience. You can download our worksheets at any time and print them out to serve as new material for your little learner’s quizzes, tests, examinations, or homework. If you’re looking for a readily available source of math worksheets, you can also bookmark this page to have our growing worksheet library always a single click away. We take great pains to ensure that our worksheets are designed to appeal to students and engage their minds. Some sheets online can have too much going on in a single page, overwhelming learners. Each worksheet on our site, on the other hand, has a neat and orderly layout. We also use large and easy to read fonts. Our pages also leave enough empty space at the margins so your child has room to store their solutions. Not all children learn at the same pace in third grade, but that’s okay. Our worksheets contain addition and subtraction problems that’ll challenge their young minds but keep them from being too intimidated. Some of our items are simple. However, we’re taking into account one crucial auxiliary skill that kids should master in adding, which is carrying. To that end, we also have items to sharpen your child’s carrying competency. Like with any basic arithmetic skill, adding and subtracting things is something your child will only improve in with regular exposure. That means applying their math knowledge to their daily life, and boosting their speed and efficiency with mental math in the process. Help them make a habit of doing addition or subtraction for all sorts of everyday activities. For instance, you can encourage them to start a savings jar or piggy bank, and they can learn to keep track of how much they save each day with addition. After a few months or a year, they can see if the total that they calculated matches the amount of money saved in their bank. The methods you can employ for integrating addition and subtraction to your kids’ daily habits are endless. Another classic trick is challenging them to count the number of snacks – fruits, chips or candies – in a bowl and slowly subtract from the number as they eat a few. Let your kids try our Grade 3 addition and subtraction worksheets for their next learning activity. With the help of a little practice and your encouragement, they’ll be having a grand time with their third grade math subject.
