Picture charts

An AR classroom game for Grade 3. Learners can aim with their hands at the camera or play by tapping the screen.

This set has 4 rounds in an interactive sorting activity.

Curriculum indicatorค 3.1 ป.3/1

A look before you play

Sample questions

A few real prompts from the game to help you choose an activity for your class.

  1. Sort the kinds of data into groups.

    Sort into

    • counted
    • measured
    • the number of students
    • height
    • the number of books
    • weight
    Read the explanation

    Data you count and data you measure are collected in different ways.

  2. Sort the numbers into groups.

    Sort into

    • divides exactly by 3
    • does not divide exactly by 3
    • 15
    • 16
    • 24
    • 25
    Read the explanation

    A number divides by three exactly when the sum of its digits does.

  3. Sort the sums into groups.

    Sort into

    • needs multiplying
    • needs dividing
    • 6 bags of 4 - how many altogether?
    • 24 shared between 6 bags - how many in each?
    • 5 boxes of 9
    • 45 shared between 5 boxes
    Read the explanation

    Which need multiplying and which need dividing - the question tells you.

Game teaching guide

What children will practise

Tell data you count from data you measure, a first step before collecting data for a pictogram (indicator ค 3.1 ป.3/1), with review of dividing by 3, choosing multiply or divide, and units of capacity versus weight.

What's in the worksheet

4 sorting questions with 2 boxes each - The number of students and the number of books are counted; height and weight are measured - 15 and 24 divide exactly by 3; 16 and 25 do not - "6 bags of 4, how many altogether?" needs multiplying; "24 shared between 6 bags, how many in each?" needs dividing - Litre and millilitre measure liquid; kilogram and gram measure weight

How to use it in class

This set has no pictogram to read, so it suits the lesson before collecting real data, about 6 minutes, team mode. - After Q1, collect some countable data as a class, such as favourite fruits, and draw a pictogram on the board - For dividing by 3, let pupils chant the 3 times table to check - Play it linked to the class to record results in the mark book

Common sticking points

- Putting weight and height under "counted" because they also give numbers. Ask "Did we get it by counting one by one, or with a measuring tool?" - Putting 25 under "divides by 3" because it is a familiar 5-times number - "24 shared between 6 bags" and "6 bags of 4" use the same numbers, so they are easily swapped. Check whether the question asks for the total or the amount per bag
