They are randomly generated, printable from your browser, and include the answer key. The worksheets support any sixth grade math program, but go especially well with . The worksheets are randomly generated each time you click on the links below. You can also get a new, different one just by refreshing the page in your browser (press F5). All worksheets come with an answer key placed on the 2nd page of the file. In sixth grade, students will start the study of beginning algebra (order of operations, expressions, and equations). They learn about ratios & percent and start using integers. Students also review long division, factoring, fraction arithmetic, and decimal arithmetic.In geometry, the focus is on the area of triangles and polygons and the volume of rectangular prisms. Other topics include rounding, exponents, GCF, LCM, and measuring units. Please note that these free worksheets do not cover all 6th grade topics; most notably, they do not include problem solving. Multiplication and Division and Some Review (0-2 decimal digits) , need to add zeros to the dividend , rounding the answers to three decimals by Edward Zaccaro A good book on problem solving with very varied word problems and strategies on how to solve problems. Includes chapters on: Sequences, Problem-solving, Money, Percents, Algebraic Thinking, Negative Numbers, Logic, Ratios, Probability, Measurements, Fractions, Division. Each chapter’s questions are broken down into four levels: easy, somewhat challenging, challenging, and very challenging. Exponents Place value/Rounding (up to 9 digits) (up to 12 digits) (up to 9 digits), the parts are scrambled (up to 12 digits), the parts are scrambled (up to 6 decimal digits), the parts are scrambled - rounding to the underlined digit, up to rounding to the nearest million - round to the underlined digit, up to rounding to the nearest trillion Algebra (by combining like terms; no negative numbers) ) Key to Algebra offers a unique, proven way to introduce algebra to your students. New concepts are explained in simple language, and examples are easy to follow. Word problems relate algebra to familiar situations, helping students to understand abstract concepts. Students develop understanding by solving equations and inequalities intuitively before formal solutions are introduced. Students begin their study of algebra in Books 1-4 using only integers. Books 5-7 introduce rational numbers and expressions. Books 8-10 extend coverage to the real number system. Fractions vs. Decimals This is a workbook series by Key Curriculum Press that begins with basic concepts and operations on decimals. Then the books cover real-world uses of decimals in pricing, sports, metrics, calculators, and science. (Think of how many times the divisor fits into the quotient.)

Teaching Sixth Grade

So often, our children reach sixth grade without the basics.

Or they've forgotten everything they've ever learned. Somehow.

This is the very reason that many teachers and parents find our site. If you're hoping to remedy a deficiency in your students' learning, different levels from this whole site can be very useful. 

Simply use the search bar at the bottom of every page for the concept your students need to practice, like "fraction worksheets".

Usually there's less need for practice worksheets in this grade because students are beginning to read to learn about other things in a more comprehensive way. 

Learning to read is one thing, reading to learn opens the whole world. This is the beginning of the journey of a lifetime for each of your children.

1. Printable Sixth Grade Worksheets For Math

Review and practice the basics.

Many sixth graders are not familiar enough with their early  math  facts because they never had the time and the help necessary to memorize them, or because they've been using calculators and are a bit rusty.

In this case our Math facts videos, printable flash cards, and other printable sixth grade worksheets are sooo helpful.

Move On To Bigger And Better

These next worksheets require low teacher or parent involvement once your students have been introduced to the concepts.

Kids can work on their own once you download (print or share files) the math worksheets. Print and practice!

Sixth Grade Math Word Problems

So many times math is not the problem for those who struggle with math word problems.

Sometimes it's a grammar difficulty where the logic of the sentences does not make sense. See if diagramming the sentences helps them see the actual question being asked.

Often it's a reading problem. See below for my heartiest recommendation, if reading is hard for your sixth graders.

Mathway Problem Solver

Mathway has awesome problem solvers for more technical math problems and higher level math. 

It is one of our visitors' favorite math tools .

2. 6th Grade Reading

Phonics basics.

I frequently see sixth graders who cannot read well.

Our phonics videos, flash cards and worksheets can be a big help here because they offer quick review in a painless format - not another quiz.

Refresh these concepts first.

Our advanced phonics video lessons work well with our printable phonics worksheets and make quick practice for older students. The phonics rules can be a giant help for both 6th grade Reading and Spelling. 

Will The Real Sixth Grade Reading Level Please Stand?

By the time your students are at the sixth Grade Reading level they're usually not simply learning to read. They are able to read to learn. Kids learn all the time, yet now they're learning and learning how to learn from their reading.

Supposedly.

Usually there's not much teaching left to do in 6th Grade Reading, at least as far as the mechanics of reading go.

Really, if kids will write more they'll learn to read better so be sure to take a look at  Karen Newell's creative writing ideas in her Write On book . Both are available as downloads.

Teaching Grammar

Hang In There, Reading Gets Easier

For some students, all they have to do is to keep on "keepin' on".

The more writing and reading that your students do in other classes, the more chance they'll have of improving their comprehension. This is good to know when things look overwhelming. A child may struggle today, and may thrive later - even real soon if they're working at it.

Be encouraged.

Only rarely is it true that a whole sixth Grade class is at the same experience and maturity level, so their comprehension of ideas is affected here as well.

You already know that the best reading activity is to read.

Writing Helps Reading Skills

By sixth grade most students have had a hand at writing their own essays and book reports so they appreciate reading from a different perspective.

Generally, they have an idea of the work involved in creating a story and are a bit more interested in the stories of others. This is when good histories and biographies become interesting.

If your students are interested in the books they are reading, they'll read them better.

Either edify the books you require or suggest light titles that are of interesting topics. Be excited so that your students will be excited.

Many students really appreciate suggestions of books to choose because it can be hard to stand amongst the shelves wondering which book to is a good choice. Not to mention the siren call of electronics.

You'll find that your students will work harder through books in which they have an interest, even if the reading level is a bit high. Once they've read several tougher books they'll have an easier time reading the day to day material. One hard book covers most of the skills needed for a lifetime.

Remember the value of writing. Old timers like in Laura Ingalls Wilder's stories wrote from a book to a slate as the main way to practice their work. They did not have reams of loose leaf paper to spend on writing.

Writing? It's a great way to learn. Teachers and college students take notes from their reading all day long. Writing does aid both reading and memory work.

Romalda Spalding's Writing Road To Reading

How to teach reading.

We're not usually teaching reading to sixth graders as most usually have this skill. I say this often this site, yet I'd be remiss not to mention it here; I really learned "how to teach reading" as an art after using the  Writing Road To Reading  by Romalda Spalding.

Reading came fairly easily to me. It did not come easily for some of my children, and that was heart breaking for all of us.

In our family  Grandpa  came to the rescue in this case. He decided to take the Spalding courses in Phoenix, Arizona and came home ready to teach the basics to all of his grandchildren.

Go Back To TRUE Basics

Within two months Grandpa had had such good results with our children and local nieces and nephews that others were asking to join us at our homes.

Soon he opened his own home for the purpose of teaching phonics and in the course of the next few years before his final illness he had helped over 60 other families for free.

He's the reason we keep our PrintNPractice resources free.

• Yes, you can buy our worksheets in bundles ; but all of them and more are available free on this site.

We were all astonished at how basic phonics lessons really improved the reading skills of our older children , too.

At first they felt awkward learning the sounds and the rules; but by the time the next quarter came they could already see an improvement in their reading. They were unanimously grateful to have had to study phonics even at a late time.

One child conveyed to me her joy that not only did her spelling grade improve, but it was so much easier to study her history and science classes. Even Math was a bit easier simply because her reading was easier.

The  Writing Road To Reading  also has a great sixth grade reading list so you have an idea of some classic books that have interested children for years. I heartily recommend this book.

3. Printable Sixth Grade Worksheets for Spelling

Printable 6th grade spelling words & worksheets.

Half the battle with children learning their sixth grade spelling words is making sure that they copy the words correctly the first time.

Our spelling list for sixth grade has much longer words than the words in our lower levels. They frequently use several variations on a base word for easier Vocabulary work.

Your students will see the Spelling rules in action in the different spellings of derived words and be able to make connections when learning other new words.

Seeing the different versions of words with their different prefixes and suffixes also teaches Vocabulary skills. These same Vocabulary skills transfer to other words, too.

6th Grade Spelling List, 8 Pages

The first download has an eight page list of Spelling words to use through the year. Print them double sided for reference to keep on your desk or in your binder.

6th Grade Spelling Worksheets, 98 pages

The second download has ninety-eight pages including the same Spelling word list on the left; so, at first, it will look to be the same download.

It has the Spelling worksheets for these same words that have space to copy the words three times.

Sixth Grade Spelling Ideas

Create spelling lists from reading books.

This is a super efficient way to improve spelling for anyone.

One hundred years ago most readers used this method and they even marked the phonics sounds .

Use your students' reading books to find new words or complicated words and then create your own Spelling list for those words.

Do it ahead of time so that the reading is easier and makes better sense. Once your students have then read the material, they'll have a better understanding of the meaning of the words used.

You can use this idea in History and Science classes, too, even Math classes since reading is half the trouble with word problems. We have ruled spelling sheets on our  Lined Writing Paper  page that you can use to make your unique spelling lists for copywork.

You can buy our  K-6 spelling worksheets in one bundle  with convenient files. This also includes our phonics spelling words.

Personal Spelling List

This is an ancient idea and you can do it two ways.

• Write words your children have trouble reading.
• Have them write those words.

Assign those words to practice three times each till they are no longer hard to spell.

Do you know what?

Knowing that there's more work later for not knowing their words often motivates kids to get it right the first time. :-)

Speller Notebook

I know several children who simply kept a separate notebook to study the words that they had missed.

Others simply kept a list at the back of the notebook they were using for class. This keeps the words close and handy through the year.

4. 6th Grade Grammar And Writing

Sixth Grade is a time when students should be able to construct sentences on their own, capitalize and punctuate, and even diagram simple sentences.

By 6th Grade writing class, most children are able to write from memory, but it is grammar that is the bugaboo. Check out our grammar pages for diagrams, capitalization, and punctuation.

Understanding the use of words can be a trick. How do words describe other words? Seeing the use of words on a diagram can be most helpful. Our diagramming worksheets show the parts of speech in their correct places.

The next trick is finding creative writing ideas that appeal to 6th graders.

We have practice Grammar worksheets that include diagramming charts and the definitions as well as place for the children to practice what is being taught.

My favorite writing courses for children include creative Writing ideas .

6th grade common core aligned learning objectives & standards:.

Learning objectives:

In Grade 6, instructional time should focus on four critical areas: 

(1) relating ratio and rate to whole number multiplication and division and applying the basic concepts of ratio and rate to solve problems; 

(2) showing mastery of division of fractions and extending the set of number to the system of rational numbers , which includes negative numbers; 

(3) writing, interpreting, and using expressions and equations; and (4) developing understanding of statistical thinking. 

a. Conceptual skills

• Learners provide acceptable reasons about multiplication and division in solving ratio and rate problems about quantities. They make use of their understanding of multiplication and division with ratios and rates by assuming equivalent ratios and rates as deriving from, and extending, pairs of rows (or columns) in the multiplication table, and by analyzing simple drawings that indicate the relative size of quantities. 
• Learners connect the meaning of fractions, the meanings of multiplication and division, and the relationship between multiplication and division to explain the logical solution for dividing fractions . In that way, they use these operations to solve problems. 
• 6th graders broaden their schema of numbers and the ordering of numbers to the full system of rational numbers, which includes negative rational numbers, and in particular, negative integers. 
• They explain the concepts behind the order and absolute value of rational numbers and about the location of points in all four quadrants of the coordinate plane. 
• They will have initial understanding of statistical concepts such as measures of central tendency and measures of variability. They recognize that these concepts can also be useful for summarizing data because two very different sets of data can have the same mean and median yet be distinguished by their variability. 
• They also learn to describe and summarize numerical data sets, identifying clusters, peaks, gaps, and symmetry, considering the context in which the data were collected. 

b. Procedural skills

• Learners go beyond the scope of problems about ratios for which they can use multiplication and division related to ratios and fractions to solve problems. 
• They apply the concepts of variables in mathematical expressions. In that way, they will be able to write expressions and equations that correspond to given situations, evaluate expressions, and use expressions and formulas to solve problems. Learners acknowledge the fact that expressions in different forms can be equivalent, and they apply the properties of operations to rewrite expressions in equivalent forms. 
• Learners will practice the learned concepts about equations and inequalities by solving for the solution set that will make the equations or inequalities true. They make use of the properties of operations and the idea of maintaining the equality of both sides of an equation to solve simple one-step equations . 
• Students construct and analyze tables, such as tables of quantities that are in equivalent ratios, and they use equations (such as 2x = y) to describe relationships between quantities. 
• They solve for the areas of right triangles, other triangles, and special quadrilaterals by decomposing these shapes, rearranging or removing pieces, and relating the shapes to rectangles. 
• Learners will be able to discuss, develop, and justify formulas for areas of triangles and parallelograms. They extend their understanding of surface area and volume of solid figures such as prisms, pyramids, cylinders, etc.

c. Life skills

• As the coordinate plane is fully discussed in 6th grade, learners would be able to understand how important finding accurate location is. Given its wide applications in using maps, GPS, longitude, latitude, etc, learners appreciate more the meaning of their lessons in the real world.
• Statistics help the 6th graders to make sound decisions, conclusion, prediction, and inferences based on numerical data or trends.
• Students in Grade 6 also design community projects by integrating the relationships among shapes to determine area, surface area, and volume. 
• They prepare for work on scale drawings and constructions in Grade 7 by drawing polygons in the coordinate plane.

Ratio & Proportion

Probability, number relation, factors & multiples, why 6th grade math worksheets are important.

A stated objective of Common Core State Standards (CCSS) is to standardize academic guidelines nationwide. In other words, what sixth graders learn in math in one state should be the same as what students of the same age are learning in another state. The curricula may vary between these two states, but the general concepts behind them are similar. This approach is intended to replace wildly differing guidelines among different states, thus eliminating (in theory) inconsistent test scores and other metrics that gauge student success.

An increased focus on math would seem to include a wider variety of topics and concepts being taught at every grade level, including sixth grade. However, CCSS actually calls for fewer topics at each grade level. The Common Core approach (which is clearly influenced by “Singapore Math”—an educational initiative that promotes mastery instead of memorization) goes against many state standards. Many states mandate a “mile-wide, inch-deep” curriculum in which children are taught so much in a relatively short time span, that they aren’t effectively becoming proficient in the concepts they truly need to understand to succeed at the next level. Hence, CCSS works to establish an incredibly thorough foundation not only for the math concepts in future grades, but also toward practical application for a lifetime.

For sixth grade, Common Core’s focus is on addition and subtraction— the basic math facts they will use throughout their education and beyond—as well as learning how to measure without necessarily using a ruler, and how to understand shapes. Ultimately, this focus will enable children to develop rigor in real life situations by developing a base of conceptual understanding and procedural fluency.

How Our Sixth Grade Math Worksheets Reflect Common Core Standards

Our sixth grade worksheets focus on the four critical areas outlined by CCSS:

• Connecting ratio and rate to whole number multiplication and division and using concepts of ratio and rate to solve problems
• Completing understanding of division of fractions and extending the notion of number to the system of rational numbers, which includes negative numbers
• Writing, interpreting, and using expressions and equations
• Developing understanding of statistical thinking

6th Grade Math Worksheets: Critical Areas of Focus

Fasten your seatbelts: Sixth graders are in for a wild ride this year in math. Many new concepts, such as negative numbers and variables, are introduced, but students’ previous learning will set them up nicely for learning these topics. Furthermore, much of what debuts in sixth grade provides some foundation for the algebra in the near future. Here are the four critical areas that Common Core brings to sixth grade math:

Students not only apply their proficiency of multiplication and division that they learned in earlier grades, they also use fractions extensively to solve problems about ratios and rates (e.g, if a recipe uses 4 cups of flour to make 20 cookies, how many cups are needed to make 5 cookies?).

Division of Fractions, Negative Numbers

Negative numbers are introduced, with an emphasis on negative rational numbers, negative integers, and absolute value. In the last of the four basic operations they will apply to fractional equations, students learn to divide fractions by fractions. The graph system, on which students previously were working with only one quadrant, is expanded to include all four quadrants on the coordinate plane.

Expressions and Equations

In what may be the strongest preview of future algebra, students will learn to solve one-step equations using variables (e.g, x+10=17, solve for x). Sixth graders will also rewrite equations in equivalent forms and understand that a solution is the values of the variables that make an equation true.

Statistical Thinking

As they develop their ability to think statistically, sixth graders will learn about mean, median, and mode, and they will start describing data distributions. They will also learn about measures and variability and the effect of outliers.

6th Grade Math Worksheet - A Parent's Guide

Many educators, politicians, and parents believe the instruction of mathematics in the United States is in crisis mode, and has been for some time. Indeed, recent test results show that American 15-year-olds were outperformed by 29 other countries on math testing scores. 1 To help counter this crisis, educational, civic, and business leaders worked together to develop the Common Core State Standards (CCSS).

The goal of Common Core is to establish consistent, nationwide guidelines of what children should be learning each school year, from kindergarten all the way through high school, in English and math. Though CCSS sets forth these criteria, states and school districts are tasked with developing curricula to meet the standards.

The 2014-15 school year will be important for Common Core as the standards are fully implemented in many remaining states of the 43 (and the District of Columbia) that have embraced their adoption. CCSS has its advocates as well as its critics, and the debate on its merits has become more pronounced in recent months. Irrespective of the political differences with Common Core, its concepts are critical for students because the standards help with understanding the foundational principles of how math works. This guide steers clear of most of the controversy surrounding CCSS and primarily focuses upon the math your sixthgrader will encounter.

Common Core Standards

A stated objective of Common Core is to standardize academic guidelines nationwide. In other words, what sixth-graders are learning in math in one state should be the same as what students of the same age are learning in another state. The curricula may vary between these two states, but the general concepts behind them are similar. This approach is intended to replace wildly differing guidelines among different states, thus eliminating (in theory) inconsistent test scores and other metrics that gauge student success.

An increased focus on math would seem to include a wider variety of topics and concepts being taught at every grade level, including sixth grade. However, CCSS actually calls for fewer topics at each grade level. The Common Core approach (which is clearly influenced by so-called “Singapore Math”—an educational initiative that promotes mastery instead of memorization) goes against many state standards, which mandate a “mile-wide, inch-deep” curriculum in which children are being taught so much in a relatively short span of time that they aren’t effectively becoming proficient in the concepts they truly need to succeed at the next level. Hence, CCSS works to establish an incredibly thorough foundation not only for the math concepts in future grades, but also toward practical application for a lifetime.

For sixth grade, Common Core’s focus includes ratios, division of fractions, negative numbers, and variables. Ultimately, this focus will enable children to develop rigor in reallife situations by developing a base of conceptual understanding and procedural fluency.

Overview of Sixth Grade Math Topics

From the four critical areas of focus discussed in the previous section, Common Core also further clarifies the skills sixth graders should know by the end of the school year. For example, the fluency requirement at this level is multi-digit division and multi-digit operations with decimals. The five topics presented here, taken directly from CCSS itself, include some specifics on what kids will be taught in 6th Grade.

Ratios and Proportional Relationships

• Understand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems. The concept of ratios will be taught; for example, every soccer team in the league has 12 players, so the ratio of players to teams is 12:1. From this concept is introduced the idea that a unit rate of a ratio a:b is the same as a/b (e.g., if the soccer team has 2 goalkeepers out of its 12 players, 1/6 of the team are goalies). Once ratios are understood, students will solve real-world math problems including ratios of time and speed, unit pricing, percentages, and measurement.

• Gain familiarity with factors and multiples. Prime numbers are also introduced.

• Generate and analyze patterns. The idea here is that sixth graders will recognize the patterns apparent in the four basic math operations, as well as create patterns based on a given rule.

Number Operations in Base 10

• Use place value understanding and properties of operations to perform multi-digit arithmetic. Students will strive toward fluently adding or subtracting numbers within a 1,000. They will master rounding numbers to the nearest 10 or 100, and they will also learn to multiply one-digit numbers by multiples of 10 but less than 100 (e.g., 6 × 40).

The Number System

• Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division to divide fractions by fractions. This is exactly how it sounds: Students will become proficient in dividing fractions by fractions. Then, they will apply this concept to word problems.

• Compute fluently with multi-digit numbers and find common factors and multiples. By the end of sixth grade, students complete their fluency of the four basic operations and will be able to add, subtract, multiply, or divide any multi-digit number, either whole or including decimals. Also, they will learn to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of two numbers of 100 or less and the least common multiple (LCM) of two numbers not greater than 12.

• Apply and extend previous understandings of numbers to the system of rational numbers. The concept of negative numbers are emphasized, particularly in real-world quantities (e.g., temperature, budgets, and so on). Rational numbers and absolute value are introduced, as well as the role of 0 on the number line. Finally, word problems will include graphing points in all four quadrants of a coordinate plane.

• Apply and extend previous understandings of arithmetic to algebraic expressions. Among the subjects taught:.

• Students will begin to identify and evaluate expressions that replace letters for numbers (e.g., add x to 8 to get x + 8).
• They will identify parts of an expression using the terms they have learned from previous grades (e.g., quotient, factor, sum, and so on).
• They will create and evaluate expressions using whole-number exponents.
• They will apply the order of operations to equations, especially those without parentheses.
• They will apply the distributive property to reach equivalent equations. For example, 2 (x + 4) is the same as 2x + 8.
• They will be able to identify when equations are equivalent. For example, x + x + 2x is equivalent to 5x - x.

• Reason about and solve one-variable equations and inequalities. With these algebraic concepts down, sixth graders will begin to solve simple equations and inequalities that include one variable. They will also use substitution to determine if an equation is true.

• Represent and analyze quantitative relationships between dependent and independent variables. Students will solve problems that use variables to represent two quantities that change in relationship to one another. For example, how far would a train that goes 50 miles per hour travel in a certain number of hours? If d represents distance and t equals time, then d = 50t. The equation can change if the train goes faster or slower.

• Solve real-world problems involving area, surface area, and volume. Concepts taught in sixth grade include:

• Students will solve for the area of right triangles, special quadrilaterals, and other polygons by composing the shapes into rectangles or decomposing them into triangles and other shapes.
• The will learn how to find the volume of a right prism.
• They will draw polygons in the coordinate plane based on given vertices, and they will apply this concept to word problems.
• They will represent three-dimensional problems using nets of rectangles and triangles to find surface area.

Statistics and Probability

• Develop understanding of statistical variability. Students will be taught the definition of a statistical question as one that anticipates variability (for example, asking someone’s age with the knowledge the answer could be within a range of numbers). Also, they will learn that data collected to answer a statistical question has a center (mean, median, and mode), a spread (interquartile range, mean absolute deviation, and outliers), and an overall shape.

• RSummarize and describe distributions. Sixth graders will display data on a number line, including dot plots, histograms, and box plots. Furthermore, they will summarize data sets in relation to context, including by reporting the number of observations, describing the nature of the attribute (e.g., how it was measured), by mean and median, and by identifying patterns in relation to the center.

Tips for Helping Your Sixth Grader with These Sixth Grade Math Worksheets

Some of parents’ trepidation with Common Core isn’t so much with the guidelines themselves, but with the testing now aligned with CCSS via local math curricula. Standardized testing was stressful for students and parents before; with the ongoing Common Core implementation, many families simply don’t know what to expect.

Fortunately, CCSS does not have to be that stressful, for you or your sixth grader. Here are some tips to help your children succeed with Common Core math:

Be informed; be involved

If Common Core concerns you, intrigues you, or confuses you, don’t hesitate to learn as much about it—in your child’s classroom, at your kids’ school, and on a national level. Talk with teachers, principals, and other parents. Seek advice on how you can help your kids, and yourself, navigate CCSS math. If you want to take further action, become involved with PTA or other organizations and committees that deal with your school’s curriculum. The more you know, the more, ultimately, you can help your child.

Give them some real-world math

A basic tenet of Common Core is to apply math principles to real-world situations. Why not start now? Give your child math problems when you are out and about— the grocery store, in traffic, the park, and so on. For example, if you are putting gasoline into your car, before you start dispensing the fuel, ask your sixth grader how much money will be required to fill up your 15-gallon tank. Without a pencil and notebook to compute the answer, he or she might have to fall back on alternative math processes—processes that Common Core encourages—for a solution.

Take time to learn what they are learning

You might look at a worksheet your child brings home and think, “This isn’t the math I’m used to.” Because Common Core emphasizes understanding the process of arriving at an answer, your child may be taught additional ways to fry a mathematical egg, so to speak. Instead of shunning these approaches, learn them for yourself. Once you comprehend these additional methods, you will be better able to help your child comprehend them as well.

Encourage them to show their work

This suggestion can be read two ways. First, students will be encouraged to show how they arrived at an answer (and beginning with sixth grade math, some answers can be self-checked to see if they are correct), especially within Common Core. Second, ask your children to show you their homework, particularly the challenging stuff. Explaining how a problem is solved is a basic CCSS tenet, so if your kids can be confident in explaining their work to you, they will carry that confidence into the classroom when the teacher asks for those same explanations.

Seek more help if necessary

If your sixth grader is struggling with the new math standards, talk with his or her teacher first. You then might want to seek outside resources to help your child. Several online resources provide math help, including worksheets and sample tests that conform to Common Core standards. Tutoring might be an option you consider as well. Innovative iPad-based math programs have emerged that combine the personalized approach of a tutor with today’s technology. This revolutionary approach also may feature a curriculum based on Common Core, thus ensuring your child’s learning at home is aligned with what he or she is learning at school.

The Truth About CCSS and Performance

Common Core aims to improve educational performance and standardize what students should learn at every grade in preparation for a lifetime of application, but it does not set curricula, nor does it direct how teachers should teach. As with any educational reform, some teachers, schools, and school districts will struggle with CCSS, some will seamlessly adapt, and some will thrive. As a parent, your responsibility is to monitor what your sixth-grader is learning, discover what is working or isn’t working for your child, and to communicate with his or her teacher—and to accept that your children’s math instruction does differ from what you learned when you were younger, or even what they might have learned last year. The transition can be a little daunting for parent and student alike, but that’s not a product of the standard itself. Common Core simply takes a new, more pointed approach to improving the quality of math instruction in this country.

The Benefits

As previously mentioned, CCSS decreases the number of topics students learn at each grade. However, the remaining topics are covered so extensively that the chances a child will master the corresponding skills increase. An analogy to this approach is comparing two restaurants. One restaurant has a varied menu with dozens of items; the other only serves hamburgers, fries, and milk shakes. The quality of the food at the first restaurant may vary upon the cooks’ experience, the multitude of ingredients required for so many offerings, and the efficiency (or lack thereof) of the staff. Because the second restaurant only serves three items, mastering those three items efficiently should result in an excellent customer experience. That’s not to say the first restaurant won’t succeed (because many do), but there’s always a chance that something on the menu won’t live up to the business’s own expectations.

By reducing the number of math topics taught, Common Core helps ensure students are truly ready for what comes next. Given the attention given to the included concepts, more practical applications and alternate operations of the math can be explored.

Coinciding with the reduction of topics is an emphasis on vigor—achieving a “deep command” of the math being taught. Students will be challenged to understand the concepts behind mathematical operations rather than just resorting to rote memorization and processes to get a right answer. Speed and accuracy are still important; kids won’t be getting away that easily from flash cards and quizzes that increase fluency. Moreover, Common Core places even additional emphasis on practical application—after all, the math kids learn now will be important when they become adults, even if they never have to think about prime numbers or symmetrical lines in their day-to-day lives.

Finally, CCSS links standards from grade to grade so that the skills learned at one level translate into the tools they need to learn at the next level. This coherence would seem an obvious educational approach, but often, there is no link—students are taught a skill in sixth grade that might not be used (and might have to be re-taught) until eighth. Each new concept in Common Core is an extension of a previous, already learned concept.

Math Practices to Help Improve Performance

In addition to the grade-specific standards it sets forth, Common Core also emphasizes eight “Standards of Mathematical Practice” that teachers at all levels are encouraged to develop in their students.3 These eight practices, designed to improve student performance, are described here, with added information on how they apply to sixth-graders.

• Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. Students explain the problem to themselves and determine ways they can reach a solution. Then, they work at the problem until it’s solved. This CCSS math practice encourages students to take their time to read and try understanding the problem, emphasizing that the process is ultimately important even if it doesn’t result in a correct answer. Sixth-graders, for example, might create a table of numbered pairs to better understand a ratio. Students this age will also be encouraged to visualize the problem in order to better reach a solution.

• Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others Students use their acquired math knowledge and previous results to explain or critique their work or the work of others. Sixth-graders may be asked to work in teams to solve a problem or set of problems, then present their work to the class.
• Model with mathematics This is just like it sounds: Students use math to solve real-world problems. Sixth-graders can be challenged to take the math skills they have learned into their own lives. For example, a student may use ratios and variable equations to determine how many lawns could be mowed in 30 hours if it takes 6 hours to mow 4 lawns.
• Use appropriate tools strategically Another self-explanatory practice: Students learn and determine which tools are best for the math problem at hand. Fourth-graders might be directed to fgure out the perimeter of their classroom and be given a choice of a yardstick, a 6-inch ruler, or a tape measurer to achieve that goal. They then decide which will work best toward a solution.
• Attend to precision Students strive to be exact and meticulous—period. A great thing about ratios and variable equations: Answers can be easily and efficiently double-checked, and sixth-graders will be expected to review an answer to ensure they were correct. Here’s another example of the importance of precision: Students can use the distributive property to express the sum of two whole numbers between 1 and 100 with a common factor as a multiple of a sum of two whole numbers with no common factor—e.g., 36+8 can also be expressed as 4 (9+2).
• Look for and make use of structure Students will look for patterns and structures within math and apply these discoveries to subsequent problems. For example, solving for x in an equation might be as simple as adding or subtracting the variable from each side—a basic algebraic principle that will help sixth-graders with variable expressions. Another example: The smaller number in negative inequality (e.g., -7
• Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning Students come to realizations—“a-ha” moments is a good term for these realizations—about the math operations that they are performing and use this knowledge in subsequent problems. For example, a fourth-grader may realize that whenever an odd number is divided by an even number, there will be a remainder, which is something he or she can look for in future division problems.
• Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning Students come to realizations—“aha” moments is a good term for these realizations—about the math operations that they are performing and use this knowledge in subsequent problems. For example, a sixth-grader might realize that 30 percent of a quantity is the same as 30/100 times the quantity. He or she can then use that knowledge when solving other problems involving percentages.

Oh, those loveable 6th graders! What would middle school be like with out them? Here are all of my reading worksheets that were written at the 6th grade level. I used this fantastic site to determine the readability scores of these worksheets, but you should read and approve them yourself before giving them to your students. Readability scores are not perfect and there are many different algorithms to determine readability scores. I use an average of these scores, but they can vary wildly. For these reasons, I encourage you to open up the reading levels two grade levels in each direction. This will give you a good selection of texts that are appropriate for a 6th grade student to read.

This is wonderful! Are these worksheets to be done before or after a lesson on the subject? Are they pre-tests? Do you present each lesson in the order they are listed here?

Use them as you feel that they will best assist you and your students in reaching your goals. This is kind of what I did when I was teaching: https://www.ereadingworksheets.com/e-reading-worksheets/reading-unit-and-lesson-plans-aligned-with-common-core-state-standards/

AN EXCELLENT WEBSITE

This is a great website for children to read and for teachers to provide. As a student it is recommended for students and teachers.

there should be only chose the answer not question answer but anyway it is a nice website i hope you will improve this thing and one last thing please give small comprehension or passage

Most teachers like it when students are required to explain their answers. It adds reflection and expression to the exercises. I do understand that when you are working on these by yourself, you may not be interested in answering short response questions. In that case, you can disable them on the screen where you enter your name. The option box is in the top right corner. Best wishes.

yes, i am with you i cannot study when i only go down with arrow i see the answer .

so please this app should respect our decisions

I’m confused as to what your decisions are and how I could improve my respect toward your decisions.

TOO GOOD! JUST LOVED IT! KEEP UP THE GOOD JOB!!!

These worksheets are the absolute best I have encountered thus far. Can you point me in the direction of some myth worksheets? Thanks.

Thank you for this resource. It is amazing and has proven to be invaluable. I appreciate your hard work and thoughtfulness. I have learnt so much from you as an educator and so have the children I work with. Thelma

Thank you for the kind words. They are inspiring. Best wishes!

Mr. Morton, could you check the answers for The Story of Keesh worksheet #’s 1 and 2? I believe the answers on the worksheet may be reversed, with the correct answer for 1 being “D”, and the correct answer for 2 being “A”. The electronic version provides different solutions than the worksheet answer key. Thanks in advance for reviewing, and great resource!

You are absolutely right. I have amended the key.

hi, there is a typo I think above in your entry paragraph: “What would middle school be like with out them?” I think without must be written as one word. otherwise your site is amazing!

I love this website. It is so helpful to me and to others. I love this website alot.

Julia Bettis

I don’t know why these aren’t available in pdf format. I can’t open the RTF files without some of the text missing or blocked out.

They are available as PDFs.

thank you for providing such a wonderful resource… though I have purchased other resources, they do not measure up… I have constantly returned to this site for better quality passages and questions… thank you and you are APPRECIATED!!!

That’s nice of you to say. I’m always working to provide new and better resources. Come back again!

Thank you SOO Much for providing this resource. I was looking for worksheets that I can use to avoid the “summer slump”. This was amazing!!

This website has been a wonderful resource! I am in my pre-student teaching phase and I have been tasked to work with a student that is three grades levels below in reading. Sometimes it is difficult to judge readability and this website has made it easy for me to select activities to support her goals. Thank you so much!

I’m so happy to hear it. Best wishes.

This is hands down the best resource of its kind on the internet (at least that I have come across… and I’m Google-happy). Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You saved me sooo much time and effort (and I still wouldn’t have been able to do it quite as well). Thank you, thank you and thank you for taking the time. I’m sure it was a labor of love.

You are so welcome. Come back again. I make a lot of updates. Thank you for taking the time to comment and for the kind words.

The answer is wrong for the mongoose article for the first one the correct answer would be c

Thank you for sharing that. I have fixed the error.

Sixth-Grade Homework

Even if your daughter is using most of her time efficiently, she may need some help from you in managing the bigger homework load that sixth grade brings. Having a set time and place for doing homework will give her the self-discipline to start each day. Beyond this, you need to make sure your daughter knows how to plan her work. Before your child tackles her first assignment, she needs to prioritize her work from studying for a test first to doing a math worksheet last. Have her tell you her plans for several days so she gets in the habit of doing this.

Help your daughter further along the path to homework success by making sure that she reads directions carefully and can use textbook and worksheet examples to make sure she is on the right track with an assignment. Then stay nearby to provide assistance if she asks for it. While it is acceptable to work with her to get an assignment started, avoid doing any of her work.

If these hints don't help your daughter reduce her homework time substantially, you need to talk to her teachers about how burdensome homework is for your child. Take a list of the daily assignments that your child has to your discussion, and find out how long the teachers think each assignment should take. Quite often, when several teachers are making assignments, they don't realize how overwhelming the homework load is.
