The objective of our California Test Prep Grade 3 Math book is to provide students, educators, and parents with practice materials focused on the core skills needed to help students succeed on the Smarter Balanced Math Assessments in 2017-18.

A student will fare better on a test when s/he has practiced and mastered the skills measured by the assessment. A student also excels when s/he is familiar with the format and structure of the test. This book helps students do both.

Students can use this 3rd Grade workbook for the State assessments to review key material and practice with standard-tethered skill-building exercises. They can also take math practice tests that reflect the rigor and format of the Grade 3 Math SBAC. Students will become accustomed to how the content of the test is presented, which will enhance their test-taking skills. By SBAC testing day, students will feel confident and adequately prepared to do their best on this challenging mathematics exam.

CCSS Math Grade 3 - California Test Practice Grade 3

In California, the Smarter Balanced (SBAC) summative assessments in math are administered as part of the California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) System. This system is based on the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for mathematics. In California, the SBAC assessments are given in grades 3 through 8 and grade 11 for ELA and mathematics.

The grade 3 SBAC math test determines if students have mastered third grade Common Core mathematics standards, and makes sure that they are getting ready for fourth grade.
