Grade 6 math: frequently asked questions
What math is taught in Grade 6?
Grade 6 math covers five Common Core domains: Ratios and Proportional Relationships, The Number System, Expressions and Equations, Geometry, and Statistics and Probability.
How are these Grade 6 chapters organized?
Each chapter follows one group of Common Core standards and has six resources: a one-page lesson, a 10-problem worksheet, its answer key, a 45-minute test, its answer key with a scoring guide, and a 10-question quiz.
Are the worksheets printable?
Yes. Every lesson, worksheet, test and answer key can be downloaded as a printable PDF in US Letter format.
How should a student use these resources?
Read the lesson, do the worksheet without looking at the answers, check every step with the answer key, take the quiz online, then take the timed test.
Do these pages match state standards?
The chapters follow the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics, used by most US states; the exact standard codes are listed at the top of every page.
