About this class
About Basic 3 mathematics
In Basic 3 (B3), learners following the Standards-Based Curriculum use written methods for addition and subtraction, learn multiplication facts to 10 × 10, divide, compare fractions, and measure time and perimeter. It is part of lower primary (B1–B3). Boldungu breaks each topic into short sets of interactive questions so children can practise one skill at a time and come back to anything that needs more work.
