Welcome to 6th grade math for the 2020-2021 school year!
Sixth grade math reinforces and extends many of the skills that students have learned in previous grades.
This year we are using a new math curriculum called Zearn. Zearn Math is a top-rated math program that brings together hands-on teaching and immersive digital learning through instructional materials, daily personalized software-based lessons, and actionable data on student learning.
Each unit in Zearn is referred to as a Mission, and each lesson is made up of 3 parts - fluency and problem-solving, small groups, and independent digital lessons. Fluency, problem-solving and small groups are teacher-led, while the independent digital lessons allow students to engage with new concepts at their own pace, supported by personalized remediation paths that allow students to correct misconceptions in the moment and continue learning.
