Alaska Grade 6 Math Standards

The official Alaska Grade 6 math standards, grouped by domain with the exact code and description for each expectation.

6.RP Β· Ratios & Proportional Relationships

  • 6.RP.1Write and describe the relationship in real life context between two quantities using ratio language
  • 6.RP.2Understand the concept of a unit rate (a/bassociated with a ratioa:bwithbβ‰  0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship) and apply it to solve real-world problems (e.g., unit pricing, constant speed)
  • 6.RP.3Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems (e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations)

6.NS Β· The Number System

  • 6.NS.1Interpret and compute quotients of fractions, and solve word problems involving division of fractions by fractions (e.g., by using visual fraction models and equations to represent the problem)
  • 6.NS.2Fluently multiply and divide multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm. Express the remainder as a whole number, decimal, or simplified fraction; explain or justify your choice based on the context of the problem
  • 6.NS.3Fluently add, subtract, multiply, and divide multi-digit decimals using the standard algorithm for each operation. Express the remainder as a terminating decimal, or a repeating decimal, or rounded to a designated place value
  • 6.NS.4Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers less than or equal to 100 and the least common multiple of two whole numbers less than or equal to 12. Use the distributive property to express a sum of two whole numbers 1–100 with a common factor as a multiple of a sum of two whole numbers with no common factor
  • 6.NS.5Understand that positive and negative numbers describe quantities having opposite directions or values (e.g., temperature above/below zero, elevation above/below sea level, credits/debits, positive/negative electric charge); use positive and negative numbers to represent quantities in real-world contexts, explain the meaning of 0 in each situation
  • 6.NS.6Understand a rational number as a point on the number line. Extend number line diagrams and coordinate axes familiar from previous grades to represent points on the line and in the plane with negative number coordinates
  • 6.NS.7Understand ordering and absolute value of rational numbers
  • 6.NS.8Solve real-world and mathematical problems by graphing points in all four quadrants of the coordinate plane. Include use of coordinates and absolute value to find distances between points with the same first coordinate or the same second coordinate

6.EE Β· Expressions & Equations

  • 6.EE.1Write and evaluate numerical expressions involving whole-number exponents
  • 6.EE.2Write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers
  • 6.EE.3Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. Model (e.g., manipulatives, graph paper) and apply the distributive, commutative, identity, and inverse properties with integers and variables by writing equivalent expressions
  • 6.EE.4Identify when two expressions are equivalent (i.e., when the two expressions name the same number regardless of which value is substituted into them)
  • 6.EE.5Understand solving an equation or inequality as a process of answering a question: which values from a specified set, if any, make the equation or inequality true? Use substitution to determine whether a given number in a specified set makes an equation or inequality true
  • 6.EE.6Use variables to represent numbers and write expressions when solving a real-world or mathematical problem; understand that a variable can represent an unknown number, or, depending on the purpose at hand, any number in a specified set
  • 6.EE.7Solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations of the formx+p=qandpx=qfor cases in whichp,qandxare all nonnegative rational numbers
  • 6.EE.8Write an inequality of the formx>corx<cto represent a constraint or condition in a real-world or mathematical problem. Recognize that inequalities of the formx>corx<chave infinitely many solutions; represent solutions of such inequalities on number line diagrams
  • 6.EE.9Use variables to represent two quantities in a real-world problem that change in relationship to one another; write an equation to express one quantity, thought of as the dependent variable, in terms of the other quantity, thought of as the independent variable. Analyze the relationship between the dependent and independent variables using graphs and tables, and relate these to the equation

6.G Β· Geometry

  • 6.G.1Find the area of right triangles, other triangles, special quadrilaterals, and polygons by composing or decomposing into other polygons (e.g., rectangles and triangles). Apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems
  • 6.G.2Apply the standard formulas to find volumes of prisms. Use the attributes and properties (including shapes of bases) of prisms to identify, compare or describe three-dimensional figures including prisms and cylinders
  • 6.G.3Draw polygons in the coordinate plane given coordinates for the vertices; determine the length of a side joining the coordinates of vertices with the same first or the same second coordinate. Apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems
  • 6.G.4Represent three-dimensional figures (e.g., prisms) using nets made up of rectangles and triangles, and use the nets to find the surface area of these figures. Apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems
  • 6.G.5Identify, compare or describe attributes and properties of circles (radius, and diameter)

6.SP Β· Statistics & Probability

  • 6.SP.1Recognize a statistical question as one that anticipates variability in the data related to the question and accounts for it in the answers
  • 6.SP.2Understand that a set of data has a distribution that can be described by its center (mean, median, or mode), spread (range), and overall shape and can be used to answer a statistical question
  • 6.SP.3Recognize that a measure of center (mean, median, or mode) for a numerical data set summarizes all of its values with a single number, while a measure of variation (range) describes how its values vary with a single number
  • 6.SP.4Display numerical data in plots on a number line, including dot or line plots, histograms and box (box and whisker) plots
  • 6.SP.5Summarize numerical data sets in relation to their context, such as by:
  • 6.SP.6Analyze whether a game is mathematically fair or unfair by explaining the probability of all possible outcomes
  • 6.SP.7Solve or identify solutions to problems involving possible combinations (e.g., if ice cream sundaes come in 3 flavors with 2 possible toppings, how many different sundaes can be made using only one flavor of ice cream with one topping?)
