Activities for Third and Fourth Grades
Since I gave you some activities for first and second graders, here are a couple for third and fourth.
Third grade Science with bubbles
• You’ll need water, liquid dish soap, a shallow tray, and a straw
• In the tray mix 1 quart of water and 8 tablespoons of liquid dish soap
• Let your child use a drinking straw to blow into the tray. With a little practice some very big bubbles can be made.
Fourth grade Math
• While you’re waiting to fill your gas tank, ask your child to help figure out your bill
• If a gallon of gas costs $2.59, how much will it cost for 10 gallons, 15 gallons, to fill up with 18 gallons?
Both of these activities match to California State Standards in science and math. For more quick, fun, and easy activities you can go to http://www.edsuccess.com.
