Year 3 mathematics
In Year 3, children work with numbers up to 1000 using hundreds, tens and ones, and become more fluent with addition and subtraction facts. They meet multiplication and division as equal groups and fair sharing, and begin to name halves, quarters and eighths. They also measure, explore shapes and position, collect data and talk about chance.
