Grade 6 Math Test- Thursday, October 19th

Our grade 6s have been working hard on their Number Sense and Numeration Unit. We have been collaborating to solve more complex, multi-step problems and now students will be reviewing all necessary skills needed to prepare for next week's test. The concepts and skills needed for next week's test are outlined below with an anchor chart to assist your child to study for the test. We worked on a review of our unit this week and the class will be going over the answers on Monday. Students are not required to know each strategy for addition, subtraction, multiplication, etc. All I ask is that they use a strategy that they feel comfortable with. I provide them with a variety of strategies to explore so that they can see what works for them.

Students need to be able to:
-identify the place value of an underlined digit


-write, read, and draw numbers in standard, expanded, word, and base 10 form

-identify the value of an underlined digit and say what that digit is worth. For example, in the number 257 931, the seven would be in the thousands place and it is worth 7 000.









-find the product (multiplication), sum (addition) and difference (subtraction) in word problems (1 mark for showing their work, 1 mark for the correct answer, 1 mark for a proper sentence that answers the question.

-using < and > symbols to identify which number is greater/less
-round numbers to the nearest ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, or hundred thousand.

   

-identify prime numbers and draw a factor tree for composite numbers. An example for a factor tree below.
