Grade 6 Math

MATHEMATICS

 

 

The Grade 6 teachers will be implementing the JUMP Math program developed by John Mighton. JUMP Math works to create a numerate society. JUMP Math is a numeracy program that is dedicated to enhancing the potential in children by encouraging an understanding and a love of math in students and educators. JUMP Math replaces the self-fulfilling myth that some people are born with mathematical ability while others do not have the ability to succeed. It assumes that all children can be led to think mathematically. Information about this program and supplementary materials can be found on the JUMP Math website: jumpmath.org

 

Math is divided into four strands:

 

1.      Shape and Space

Shape and space includes topics such as perimeter, area of rectangles, volume of cubes, angles, and classifying triangles.

2.      Number Sense

Number sense includes topics such as place value, fractions, percent, decimals, multiples, and factors.

3.      Patterns and Relations

Patterns and relations include topics such as finding relations between sets of data, continuing patterns, and writing equations with variables.

4.      Statistics and Probability

Statistics and probability includes topics such as reading and creating line graphs, methods of data collection, and calculating probability.

 

 

 

Evaluation and Assessment

 

Students will be evaluated and assessed on tests, quizzes, problem solving, book work, and mental math.

 

Class work will be checked daily.
