A steady spring set: 7 butterflies visiting 3 flowers each, 2/4 of a gallon in a rain barrel simplifying to 1/2, and 6 nests holding 4 eggs apiece. An inference question turns wet ground and crawling worms into a clue that it just rained, while a strawberry word problem asks about 9 baskets with 5 berries each.

The matching task pairs baby animals (chick, tadpole, lamb, calf) with their grown-up names, blending vocabulary with multiplication, division, and fraction simplification so third graders see how spring stories and number sense fit together.

★ Part A: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1) If 7 butterflies each visit 3 flowers, they visit 21 flowers in all.
2) A rain barrel collected 2/4 of a gallon, which simplifies to 1/2 of a gallon.
3) There are 6 nests with 4 eggs each, so there are 24 eggs total.
4) When a story says the ground is wet and worms are crawling out, you can infer it just rained.
5) A farmer picks 9 baskets with 5 strawberries each, giving 45 strawberries total.
6) If 6/9 of the chicks have hatched, that fraction simplifies to 2/3.
7) A butterfly has 4 stages in its life cycle: egg, larva, pupa, and adult.
8) If 24 seeds are shared equally among 6 pots, each pot gets 4 seeds.
9) A garden has 8 rows with 3 daisies in each row, so it has 24 daisies.
★ Part B: Matching

1) Match each baby animal to its adult name.
