Students focus on five critical areas in grade 6 mathematics: connecting ratio and rate to whole number multiplication; division and problem solving; understanding of division of fractions and extending the notion of a number to the system of rational numbers, including negative numbers; building on our understanding of 3D shapes through exploration of volume and surface area, writing, interpreting, and using expressions and equations; and developing an understanding of statistical thinking.
