Minnesota 6th Grade Math Curriculum | StudyPugHelp
ID | Standard | StudyPug Topic |
|---|---|---|
6.RP.A.1 | Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities. |
6.RP.A.2 | Understand the concept of a unit rate a/b associated with a ratio a:b with b ≠ 0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship. |
6.RP.A.3 | Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems. |
6.NS.A.1 | Interpret and compute quotients of fractions, and solve word problems involving division of fractions by fractions. |
6.NS.B.2 | Fluently divide multi-digit numbers using the standard algorithm. |
6.NS.B.3 | Fluently add, subtract, multiply, and divide multi-digit decimals using the standard algorithm for each operation. |
6.NS.B.4 | Find 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. |
6.NS.5 | Understand that positive and negative numbers are used together to describe quantities having opposite directions or values. |
6.NS.6 | Understand 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.7 | Understand ordering and absolute value of rational numbers. |
6.NS.8 | Solve real-world and mathematical problems by graphing points in all four quadrants of the coordinate plane. |
6.EE.A.1 | Write and evaluate numerical expressions involving whole-number exponents. |
6.EE.A.2 | Write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers. |
6.EE.A.3 | Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. |
6.EE.A.4 | Identify when two expressions are equivalent. |
6.EE.A.5 | Understand 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? |
6.EE.B.6 | Use variables to represent numbers and write expressions when solving a real-world or mathematical problem. |
6.EE.B.7 | Solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations of the form x + p = q and px = q for cases in which p, q and x are all nonnegative rational numbers. |
6.EE.B.8 | Write an inequality of the form x > c or x < c to represent a constraint or condition in a real-world or mathematical problem. |
6.EE.C.9 | Use 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. |
6.G.A.1 | Find the area of right triangles, other triangles, special quadrilaterals, and polygons by composing into rectangles or decomposing into triangles and other shapes. |
6.G.A.2 | Find the volume of a right rectangular prism with fractional edge lengths by packing it with unit cubes of the appropriate unit fraction edge lengths. |
6.G.A.3 | Draw polygons in the coordinate plane given coordinates for the vertices; use coordinates to find the length of a side joining points with the same first coordinate or the same second coordinate. |
6.G.A.4 | Represent three-dimensional figures using nets made up of rectangles and triangles, and use the nets to find the surface area of these figures. |
6.SP.A.1 | Recognize a statistical question as one that anticipates variability in the data related to the question and accounts for it in the answers. |
6.SP.A.2 | Understand that a set of data collected to answer a statistical question has a distribution which can be described by its center, spread, and overall shape. |
6.SP.A.3 | Recognize that a measure of center for a numerical data set summarizes all of its values with a single number, while a measure of variation describes how its values vary with a single number. |
6.SP.B.4 | Display numerical data in plots on a number line, including dot plots, histograms, and box plots. |
6.SP.B.5 | Summarize numerical data sets in relation to their context. |
6th Grade Math Topics Covered
Minnesota 6th grade math spans a wide range of concepts aligned to Minnesota Academic Standards Math. StudyPug covers every major strand your child will encounter this year.
- Ratios and Unit Rates: Understand ratio relationships, unit rates, and apply ratio reasoning to real-world problems.
- Fractions and Decimals: Divide fractions by fractions and fluently operate with multi-digit decimals.
- Number System: Explore greatest common factor, least common multiple, positive and negative numbers, rational numbers, and the coordinate plane.
- Expressions and Equations: Write and evaluate expressions with exponents, apply properties of operations, solve equations of the form x + p = q and px = q, and work with inequalities.
- Geometry: Find areas of triangles and polygons, volumes of rectangular prisms with fractional edges, and surface areas using nets.
- Statistics and Probability: Understand statistical questions, describe data distributions, and display data in dot plots, histograms, and box plots.
How StudyPug Supports Minnesota 6th Graders
Every lesson on StudyPug is built around the concepts Minnesota students see in class. When your child is stuck on a ratio problem or confused about negative numbers, they can find the exact topic, watch a clear video explanation, and then practice with problems that match what their teacher assigns.
StudyPug lessons are short — most run 5 to 15 minutes — so students can fit in a review session before a test or quickly revisit a concept after school. Everything is accessible on computers, tablets, and phones.
Aligned to Minnesota Academic Standards Math
Minnesota 6th grade math is governed by the Minnesota Academic Standards Math, and students are assessed through the MCA (Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments) in 6th grade. StudyPug's content maps directly to these standards, so students are always practicing the right skills for their grade level and for MCA preparation.
