NY Grade 6 Math Curriculum Topics
ID | Math Standard Description | StudyPug Topic |
|---|---|---|
NY-6.RP.1 | Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities |
NY-6.RP.2 | Understand the concept of a unit rate a/b associated with a ratio a:b with b ≠ 0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship |
NY-6.RP.3 | Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems |
NY-6.NS.1 | Interpret and compute quotients of fractions, and solve word problems involving division of fractions by fractions |
NY-6.NS.2 | Fluently divide multi-digit numbers using the standard algorithm |
NY-6.NS.3 | Fluently add, subtract, multiply, and divide multi-digit decimals using the standard algorithm for each operation |
NY-6.NS.4 | Find the greatest common factor of two whole numbers less than or equal to 100 and the least common multiple of two whole numbers less than or equal to 12 |
NY-6.NS.5 | Understand that positive and negative numbers are used together to describe quantities having opposite directions or values |
NY-6.NS.6 | Understand a rational number as a point on the number line. Extend number line diagrams and coordinate axes to represent points on the line and in the plane with negative number coordinates |
NY-6.NS.7 | Understand ordering and absolute value of rational numbers |
NY-6.NS.8 | Solve real-world and mathematical problems by graphing points in all four quadrants of the coordinate plane |
NY-6.EE.1 | Write and evaluate numerical expressions involving whole-number exponents |
NY-6.EE.2 | Write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers |
NY-6.EE.3 | Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions |
NY-6.EE.4 | Identify when two expressions are equivalent |
NY-6.EE.5 | Understand solving an equation or inequality as a process of answering a question: which values from a specified set, if any, make the equation or inequality true? |
NY-6.EE.6 | Use variables to represent numbers and write expressions when solving a real-world or mathematical problem |
NY-6.EE.7 | Solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations of the form x + p = q and px = q for cases in which p, q and x are all nonnegative rational numbers |
NY-6.EE.8 | Write an inequality of the form x > c or x < c to represent a constraint or condition in a real-world or mathematical problem |
NY-6.EE.9 | Use variables to represent two quantities in a real-world problem that change in relationship to one another |
NY-6.G.1 | Find the area of right triangles, other triangles, special quadrilaterals, and polygons by composing into rectangles or decomposing into triangles and other shapes |
NY-6.G.2 | Find the volume of a right rectangular prism with fractional edge lengths by packing it with unit cubes of the appropriate unit fraction edge lengths |
NY-6.G.4 | Represent three-dimensional figures using nets made up of rectangles and triangles |
NY-6.G.5 | Use area and volume models to explain perfect squares and perfect cubes |
NY-6.SP.1 | Recognize a statistical question as one that anticipates variability in the data related to the question and accounts for it in the answers |
NY-6.SP.2 | Understand that a set of data collected to answer a statistical question has a distribution which can be described by its center, spread, and overall shape |
NY-6.SP.3 | Recognize that a measure of center for a numerical data set summarizes all of its values with a single number |
NY-6.SP.4 | Display numerical data in plots on a number line, including dot plots, histograms, and box plots |
NY-6.SP.5 | Summarize numerical data sets in relation to their context |
NY-6.SP.6 | Understand probability as a number between 0 and 1 |
NY-6.SP.7 | Approximate probability through long-run relative frequency |
NY-6.SP.8 | Develop and compare probability models to observed frequencies |
