Important update from TheSchoolRun
For the past 13 years, TheSchoolRun has been run by a small team of mums working from home, dedicated to providing quality educational resources to primary school parents. Unfortunately, rising supplier costs and falling revenue have made it impossible for us to continue operating, and we’ve had to make the difficult decision to close. The good news: We’ve arranged for another educational provider to take over many of our resources. These will be hosted on a new portal, where the content will be updated and expanded to support your child’s learning.
What this means for subscribers:
- Your subscription is still active, and for now, you can keep using the website as normal — just log in with your usual details to access all our articles and resources*.
- In a few months, all resources will move to the new portal. You’ll continue to have access there until your subscription ends. We’ll send you full details nearer the time.
- As a thank you for your support, we’ll also be sending you 16 primary school eBooks (worth £108.84) to download and keep.
A few changes to be aware of:
- The Learning Journey weekly email has ended, but your child’s plan will still be updated on your dashboard each Monday. Just log in to see the recommended worksheets.
- The 11+ weekly emails have now ended. We sent you all the remaining emails in the series at the end of March — please check your inbox (and spam folder) if you haven’t seen them. You can also follow the full programme here: 11+ Learning Journey.
If you have any questions, please contact us at [email protected]. Thank you for being part of our journey it’s been a privilege to support your family’s learning.
*If you need to reset your password, it will still work as usual. Please check your spam folder if the reset email doesn’t appear in your inbox.
Incomplete number sentences multiplication and division
The number sentences in this worksheet each have one number or one symbol (x or ÷) missing. You’ll need to know your 2, 5, 10, 3, 6 and 8 times tables to work out what it is!
What maths should a Year 3 child be able to do?
Here is the maths your Year 3 child will be expected to learn:
Number and place value
- Counting in increments of 4, 8, 50 and 100.
- Identifying the place value of each digit in a three-digit number.
- Comparing and ordering numbers up to 1000, and writing these numbers in both numerals and words.
Calculating
- Adding and subtracting numbers with up to three digits using column methods.
- Knowing the multiplication facts for the 3, 4, and 8 times tables.
- Multiplying two-digit numbers by one-digit numbers.
Fractions
- Finding fractions of given quantities.
- Understanding and recognising equivalent fractions.
- Adding and subtracting fractions that have the same denominator.
Measuring
- Adding and subtracting measurements of length, weight and capacity.
- Calculating the perimeter of simple 2D shapes.
- Adding and subtracting amounts of money.
- Telling and writing the time using both the 12-hour and 24-hour clock.
Geometry
- Drawing 2D shapes and constructing 3D shapes.
- Recognising right angles and determining if angles are greater or smaller than a right angle.
- Identifying horizontal and vertical lines, as well as pairs of parallel and perpendicular lines.
Statistics
- Interpreting and presenting data using bar charts, pictograms, and tables.
- Answering one-step and two-step questions based on the presented data.
How do incomplete sentences help children practise maths skills?
- Encourages critical thinking
Children must identify the missing elements, fostering deeper understanding.
- Enhances problem-solving skills
They require learners to apply strategies to find the correct solution.
- Builds flexibility in thinking
Children learn there are multiple ways to approach and solve problems.
- Improves number sense
They help students recognise patterns and understand relationships between numbers.
