What is sixth grade math? The goal is to become more fluent in arithmetic (including fractions, decimals, percents, exponents, and negative numbers) and also to prepare prealgebra skills. Not all schools and teachers around the world cover the same topics in the same depth in 6th grade, yet at this stage the student is generally learning a variety of arithmetic and prealgebra skills. This sixth grade math workbook includes: order of operationsratios and proportionsprime factorization (including factor trees and ladder diagrams)fractions, decimals, and percentsdata analysis (including histograms, box-and-whisker, stem-and-leaf, and dot plots)negative numbersexponents and squarerootsgeometric figures and the coordinate planedirect and inverse relationshipsa first introduction to working with variablesfinancial mathematicsand other sixth grade math and prealgebra skillsThe author, Chris McMullen, Ph.D., has over twenty years of experience teaching math skills to physics students. He prepared this workbook to share his strategies for applying arithmetic and prealgebra skills
