Module 1: Properties of Multiplication and Division and Solving Problems with Units of 2–5 and 10
This module begins the year by building on students’ fluency with addition and knowledge of arrays.
Topic A: Lessons in Topic A move students toward understanding familiar repeated addition from Grade 2 in the form of array models, which become a cornerstone of the module. Students use the language of multiplication as they understand what factors are and differentiate between the size of groups and the number of groups within a given context. In this module the factors 2, 3, 4, 5, and 10 provide an entry point for moving into more difficult factors in later modules.

Topic B: Study of factors links Topics A and B; Topic B extends the study to division. Students understand division as an unknown factor problem, and relate the meaning of unknown factors to either the number or the size of groups (3.OA.2, 3.OA.6). By the end of Topic B students are aware of a fundamental connection between multiplication and division that sets the foundation for the rest of the module.
Lesson 4: Understand the meaning of the unknown as the size of the group in division.

Topic C: In Topic C, students use the array model and familiar skip-counting strategies to solidify their understanding of multiplication and practice related facts of 2 and 3. They become fluent enough with arithmetic patterns to “add” or “subtract” groups from known products to solve more complex multiplication problems (3.OA.1, 3.OA.9). They apply their skills to word problems using drawings and equations with a symbol to find the unknown factor (3.OA.3). This culminates in students using arrays to model the distributive property as they decompose units to multiply (3.OA.5).
Lesson 7: Demonstrate the commutativity of multiplication and practice related facts by skip-counting objects in array models.

In Topic D students model, write and solve partitive and measurement division problems with 2 and 3 (3.OA.2). Consistent skip-counting strategies and the continued use of array models are pathways for students to naturally relate multiplication and division. Modeling advances as students use tape diagrams to represent multiplication and division. A final lesson in this topic solidifies a growing understanding of the relationship between operations (3.OA.7).

Topic E: Topic E shifts students from simple understanding to analyzing the relationship between multiplication and division. Practice of both operations is combined—this time using units of 4—and a lesson is explicitly dedicated to modeling the connection between them (3.OA.7). Skip-counting, the distributive property, arrays, number bonds and tape diagrams are tools for both operations (3.OA.1, 3.OA.2, 3.OA.9). A final lesson invites students to explore their work with arrays and related facts through the lens of the commutative property as it relates to multiplication (3.OA.5).
Lesson 14: Skip-Count objects in models to build fluency with multiplication facts using units of 4.
Lesson 15: Relate arrays to tape diagrams to model the commutative property of multiplication.
Lesson 16: Use the distributive property as a strategy to find related multiplication facts.
Lesson 17: Model the relationship between multiplication and division.
Topic F: Topic F introduces the factors 5 and 10, familiar from skip-counting in Grade 2. Students apply the multiplication and division strategies they have used to mixed practice with all of the factors included in Module 1 (3.OA.1, 3.OA.2, 3.OA.3). Students model relationships between factors, analyzing the arithmetic patterns that emerge to compose and decompose numbers as they further explore the relationship between multiplication and division (3.OA.3, 3.OA.5, 3.OA.7, 3.OA.9).
Lesson 18: Apply the distributive property to decompose units.

Lesson 21: Solve two-step word problems involving all four operations and assess the reasonableness of answers.
