6-A Contents Math Mammoth Grade 6 worksheets comprises two workbooks, 6-A and 6-B, covering all 6th grade topics. The worksheets have been created especially for teachers: each problem sheet is one page, concentrating on one topic. These aren't your 'run-of-the-mill' math worksheets. Each sheet in these two workbooks has been "hand-crafted", with varying problems that both emphasize understanding of concepts and practice computation, with variable word problems. In essence, the problems in the sheets are like what you would find in a regular math book, and far from the mechanical worksheets created by a script.
In the first book, 6-A, the four operations are only briefly reviewed and more emphasis is put on the properties of the operations and distributive property. Exponentiation and square roots are introduced. Place value is dealt with scientific notation. Decimal place value is taught to the millionths. We go through all decimal operations. Introduction to percent is based on converting a decimal to percent. Finding easy percentages mentally follows. There will be more percent problems when studying fractions and ratios and proportions. Estimating measurements is a skill that you only master by practicing with real things, and several worksheets are set up for that. The focus is on learning metric system units with all their prefixes, and conversions within the metric system. Converting between customary and metric system and converting between area units are introductory topics only. 6th grade students get a good look at divisibility and factoring. LCM and GCF concepts are explained in preparation for fraction topics, which promptly follow. All fraction operations are studied, with increasing complexity as compared to previous year. More time is spent on multiplication and division topics. With adding and subtracting, LCM and GCF are brought into discussion and bigger denominators are used. Connections with percent are important. Part problems are more complicated than before. The second book, 6-B, starts with geometry. Geometry worksheets concentrate on understanding angles formed by intersecting lines, drawing triangles, easy basic constructions, and area. There is an introduction to integers, dealing with comparing integers, adding integers with same sign or different signs, and some easy subtraction situations illustrative of temperature changes or number line jumps. Subtracting negative integers is not included. Multiplying integers is used in the context of stretching figures in coordinate grid. Gearing up for 7th grade, word problems with ratios and parts are getting more complex. Solving proportions with cross-multiplication is dealt with in passing only. Percent problems are basic and easy, focusing on finding percent of number. Probability problems are still very simple. In statistics, the focus is in drawing and reading many different kinds of graphs. Note: These worksheets follow loosely Virginia state standards for mathematics, as they were found in 2006. But standards vary within the states, and change over time. Therefore you may not find each and every 6th grade topic that you might find in some other math book or that might be listed in your state's standards or objectives.
