Grade 6 - Mathematics

Mathematics

Number: Quantity is measured with numbers that enable counting, labelling, comparing, and operating.

Algebra: Equations express relationships between quantities.

Geometry: Shapes are defined and related by geometric attributes.

Coordinate Geometry: Location and movement of objects in space can be communicated by using a coordinate grid.

Measurement: Attributes such as length, area, volume, and angle are quantified by measurement.

Measurement: Attributes such as length, area, volume, and angle are quantified by measurement.

Patterns: Awareness of patterns supports problem solving in various situations.

Statistics: The science of collecting, analyzing, visualizing, and interpreting data can inform understanding and decision making.
