3.GM.B.5 Estimate time intervals in minutes.
3.GM.B.6 Solve problems involving addition and subtraction of minutes.
3.GM.B.7 Measure or estimate length, liquid volume and weight of objects.
3.GM.B.8 Use the four operations to solve problems involving lengths, liquid volumes or weights given in the same units.
3.GM.C.9 Calculate area by using unit squares to cover a plane figure with no gaps or overlaps.
3.GM.C.10 Label area measurements with squared units.
3.GM.C.11 Demonstrate that tiling a rectangle to find the area and multiplying the side lengths result in the same value.
3.GM.C.12 Multiply whole-number side lengths to solve problems involving the area of rectangles.
3.GM.C.13 Find rectangular arrangements that can be formed for a given area.
3.GM.C.14 Decompose a rectangle into smaller rectangles to find the area of the original rectangle.

NUMBER SENSE AND OPERATIONS IN FRACTIONS

3.NF.A.1 Understand a unit fraction as the quantity formed by one part when a whole is partitioned into equal parts.
3.NF.A.2 Understand that when a whole is partitioned equally, a fraction can be used to represent a portion of the whole.
3.NF.A.2a Describe the numerator as representing the number of pieces being considered.
3.NF.A.2b Describe the denominator as the number of pieces that make the whole.
3.NF.A.3 Represent fractions on a number line.
3.NF.A.3a Understand the whole is the interval from 0 to 1.
3.NF.A.3b Understand the whole is partitioned into equal parts.
3.NF.A.3c Understand a fraction represents the endpoint of the length a given number of partitions from 0.
3.NF.A.4 Demonstrate that two fractions are equivalent if they are the same size, or the same point on a number line.
3.NF.A.5 Recognize and generate equivalent fractions using visual models, and justify why the fractions are equivalent.
3.NF.A.6 Compare two fractions with the same numerator or denominator using the symbols >, = or <, and justify the solution.
3.NF.A.7 Explain why fraction comparisons are only valid when the two fractions refer to the same whole.
