Sixth Grade Mathematics

Mathematics is indispensable for understanding our world. In addition to providing the tools of arithmetic, algebra, geometry and statistics, it offers a way of thinking about patterns and relationships of quantity and space and the connections among them. Mathematical reasoning allows us to devise and evaluate methods for solving problems, make and test conjectures about properties and relationships, and model the world around us.

Standards and Grade Level Expectations
Number Sense, Properties, and Operations 1 Quantities can be expressed and compared using ratios and rates
2 Formulate, represent, and use algorithms with positive rational numbers with flexibility, accuracy, and efficiency
3 In the real number system, rational numbers have a unique location on the number line and in space
Patterns, Functions, and Algebraic Structures 1 Algebraic expressions can be used to generalize properties of arithmetic
2 Variables are used to represent unknown quantities within equations and inequalities
Data Analysis, Statistics, and Probability 1 Visual displays and summary statistics of one-variable data condense the information in data sets into usable knowledge
Shape, Dimension, and Geometric Relationships 1 Objects in space and their parts and attributes can be measured and analyzed
