Third Grade Activities (Ready, Set, Learn)

This series from Teacher Created Resources provides engaging activities and fun-filled practice pages for beginning students. Covering a variety of topics, the small-format workbooks (7" x 9") are reproducible, and most include cute black and white graphics. Books dealing with writing provide wide lines with dotted midlines, while the other books have matching activities, fill-in-the-blanks, coloring, and more. Activities in each individual book don't vary a whole lot, as there are many similar exercises so students get plenty of practice with each skill. The basic activity books cover both writing and numbers. The dot to dot books contain only dot to dot pages, where students follow the numbers or letters to create fun scenes. Each worksheet shouldn't take long to complete (usually 4-5 things to do), so they're perfect for quick enrichment exercises. The books are geared toward slightly different grade levels, but all of them follow the same format. Each book also includes more than 150 small, colorful stickers to use in decorating the pages, rewarding good worksheets, or keeping track of completed pages. An award chart is also included for when a child finishes the book.
