We’ve curated a list of educational math videos for third graders to give educators easy access to visually stimulating lessons. Here, you’ll find videos on interpreting data with bar graphs, identifying repeat patterns, multiplication and division, and an overview of quadrilaterals and units of measurement, such as inches, feet, centimeters, and meters.
Educators get free access to Boclips Classroom to share these videos directly with students in an ad-free, distraction-free platform. Sign up to share more than 1.7M safe, educational videos.
Understanding Bar Graphs: Organizing and Interpreting Data
“Understanding Bar Graphs: Organizing and Interpreting Data” introduces the concept of bar graphs and explains why they are useful for organizing and displaying data. It covers the different parts of a bar graph and shows how to interpret the information it presents.
By using a basketball team t-shirt survey as an example, this math video for third graders demonstrates how bar graphs can help us make informed decisions based on data. This video meets Common Core third grade math standards.
Repeating Patterns in Math: The Case of the Missing Pattern
Join Detective Taylor to solve the case of the missing repeated picture patterns. In “Repeating Patterns in Math: The Case of the Missing Pattern” students will help solve the case of the missing apples and corn. The Math Challenge is to create a paper chain that has a repeating color pattern. At the end of the video, students will find out where the missing corn and apples went and learn how to apply strategies to determine missing elements in repeating patterns.
Multiplication and Division
In “Multiplication and Division,” Mr. Addit provides word problems to solve and gives guidance as to how to decide whether to multiply or to divide to find the answer. Student will be able to identify keywords in word problems to determine whether to multiply or divide
This math video for third graders explains the concept of division and how to apply it in word problems. It shows the concept of multiplication and how to apply it in word problems and teaches students how to practice solving word problems involving multiplication and division.
What are Quadrilaterals? Types of Quadrilaterals Overview
What makes a shape a quadrilateral? How can you identify and classify them? In “What are Quadrilaterals?” students will watch an exciting journey through squares, rectangles, parallelograms, rhombus, trapezoids (trapeziums), irregular quadrilaterals, and more. They’ll be able to identify properties of different types of quadrilaterals, recognize real-life examples, and practice classifying based on their shape with visual examples.
Exploring Measurement: Inches, Centimeters, and Meters
Watch this MightyOwl video and learn to measure objects using different units. In “Exploring Measurement: Inches, Centimeters, and Meters,” Jenny and Chen are out in the yard, measuring a little tree that they planted together. Jenny says that the little tree is three feet tall. Chen says that the little tree is 36 inches tall. Is it possible that they are both right? Students will understand the concept of units of measurement, such as inches, feet, centimeters, and meters. By then of this math video, third graders will:
- Learn how to choose the appropriate measuring tool for different objects.
- Recognize that different units of measurement have different sizes, leading to varying numbers required to measure the same object.
- Practice converting measurements between different units, such as inches to centimeters and feet to meters.
- Appreciate the importance of precision in measurement and the use of estimation when exact measurements are not possible.
