3rd Grade Multiplication Test with Answer Guide

Self-Correcting Quizzes from Multiplication.com

If your 3rd grader is preparing for a multiplication test at school, one of the ways you can help is to present him with these free, self-correcting quizzes. These quizzes allow your child to simulate the real testing environment, without the stress of the school environment. The quizzes are categorized according to which numbers are multiplied, so you can isolate problem areas. The quizzes also tend to be short, so your child can review in a relatively short amount of time to avoid frustration and boredom.

You can also find math games, which can engage children's interest in other activities (such as drawing or racecars) while reviewing math in a non-academic way. Encourage your child to use the dozens of free, interactive games here in the weeks leading up to a test, rather than for cramming the night before.
