Grade 3

What is an even number?

even number

A number that can be split into two equal whole groups.

For example

Eight is an even number: two children can get four each.

In Grade 3

Children pair objects up and find the numbers where nothing at all is left over.

Watch out for

Children often forget that zero is even. Sharing nothing between two people still leaves both with exactly the same.

Say it at home

Count out objects and ask whether two people could share them with none left over.
