In this assessment task, students determine which values make equations and inequalities true.

In this assessment, students find which value for a variable makes the equations and inequalities true.

In this assessment, students find the value of an equation and then create 2 other equations that have an unknown variable with the same value as the solution from the previous equation they solved.

In this assessment, students explain why they agree or disagree with the value of the variable for each equation.

In this assessment, students find the value of an equation and then create 2 other equations that have an unknown variable with the same value as the solution from the previous equation they solved.

For this task, students demonstrate their understanding of the meaning of a solution to an inequality.

For this task, students reason about the meaning of equations and the solution of an equation and make connections with operations with fractions and decimals.

 Students will create a map that includes (at minimum) five buildings, one must be your house and one must be the post office.   They will use the spheros to find the best route to the post office in order to ship their gift, in the shortest amount of time.  Students will need to find the length and width of each building on your map, using the spheros  and the distance=rate x time and find the area of each building. 

This parent guide supports parents in helping their child at home with the 6th grade Math content.

This resource accompanies our Rethink 6th Grade Math course. It includes ideas for use, ways to support exceptional children, ways to extend learning, digital resources and tools, tips for supporting English Language Learners and students with visual and hearing impairments. There are also ideas for offline learning. 

This task provides a good entry point for students into representing quantities in contexts with variables and expressions and building equations that reflect the relationships presented in the context.

In this activity, students will find discounts and sale prices for items selling at 20% off and 40% off by using tables. They will then find the general rules, using a variable, for finding those discounts and prices.

This packet contains a curriculum-embedded Common Core aligned task and instructional supports. The task is embedded in a 4-5 week unit that focuses on equations and the use of variables and algebraic reasoning to solve mathematical problems that connect to students? everyday experiences. The series of activities is designed to provide students with a conceptual understanding of equations, expressions, variables, and relations. The tasks ask students to represent their work by using models and to apply a variety of strategies to solve problems.

This video helps students determine whether a given value is a solution to a given linear equation in one variable or linear inequality in one variable.
