Skills Covered

  • Equal groups: how many groups, in each and in all
  • 3 × 4 means 3 groups of 4
  • Arrays: rows and how many in each row
  • Skip count and equal jumps
  • Turn-around facts
  • Facts for 2, 5 and 10
  • Facts with 0 and 1
  • Equal groups and array stories
  • One fact as groups, an array, adding and jumps

How to Use This Pack

Nine exit tickets, one for each lesson of the first unit of 3rd grade, what multiplying means, in lesson order. Each page holds one lesson's ticket four times: copy the page, cut on the dashed lines, and seven copies give a class of 28 a ticket each. A ticket takes a few minutes at the end of the lesson. Students answer two short questions, then circle a face beside the lesson's "I can" line to show how sure they feel. The first ticket counts equal groups without a times sign; the times sign starts with ticket 1.2.

In the Classroom

Hand out the tickets in the last five minutes of the lesson and collect them at the door. Sort them into three piles (got it, almost, not yet) to plan tomorrow's small groups. The faces show how students feel about the lesson, the answers show what they can do; the two do not always agree. Ticket 1.9 (one fact shown four ways) is for the states that teach it in this unit; skip it if your class does not. The keys write 3 × 4 as 3 groups of 4 and 3 rows of 4. The unit test is a separate pack.

At Home

Use a ticket as a quick check after practicing a skill together. Look for equal groups and arrays at home (eggs in a carton, socks in pairs, windows in rows) and ask how many groups, how many in each, and how many in all.

Tips for Success

  • Keep counters on the tables for building groups and arrays
  • Read 3 × 4 as "3 groups of 4"
  • A 2s fact is a double; a 10s fact makes tens
  • Any number times 0 is 0, and any number times 1 is that number
  • Keep the tickets for each lesson to see who has caught up

Common Core Standards Alignment

This pack supports the following Common Core State Standards for Mathematics:

  • 3.OA.A.1 Understand a product as the total in equal groups, such as 4 × 6 meaning 4 groups with 6 in each.
  • 3.OA.A.3 Solve story problems about equal groups, arrays and measurements by multiplying or dividing within 100, using drawings and equations.
  • 3.OA.B.5 Use the commutative, associative and distributive properties to multiply and divide, such as finding 7 × 8 from 7 × 5 and 7 × 3.
  • 3.OA.C.7 Multiply and divide to 100 fluently with strategies, and by year's end instantly recall every product of two single-digit numbers.
  • 3.OA.D.8 Solve two-step story problems with +, −, × and ÷, using a letter for the missing amount, and check answers by estimating or rounding.
  • 3.OA.D.9 Spot patterns in addition tables, times tables and other arithmetic, and explain them with properties, like why multiples of 5 end in 0 or 5.
  • 3.MD.C.7c Use tiles or area models to show that splitting a rectangle's side into two parts splits its area into two products (the distributive property).

3rd Grade Multiplication Exit Tickets

Exit tickets for every lesson of a unit on what multiplying means, from equal groups and arrays to the facts for 0, 1, 2, 5 and 10. Each page holds one ticket four times to cut apart, with questions on groups, multiplication sentences, arrays, skip counting and jumps, turn-around facts, facts and stories.
