Welcome to Mathematics 6

Students in grade six mathematics will build a foundation of basic understandings in number, operation, and quantitative reasoning; patterns, relationships, and algebraic thinking; geometry and spatial reasoning; measurement; probability and statistics; and problem-solving. The areas of emphasis include using ratios and adding and subtracting decimals and fractions. Students will be given opportunities to use models and manipulatives, collect and interpret data, and develop and describe proportional relationships using appropriate technology. Problem-solving, communication, connections of concepts both within and outside mathematics, and informal and formal reasoning will also be emphasized
