Number — Grade 6
-
Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators
Litnumia skill: Add and subtract fractions with unlike denominators
Grade 6 expectation, tools first (fraction strips, double number lines) before symbolic work.
-
Common factors and multiples
Litnumia skill: Common factors and multiples
Represent numbers with a variety of tools (ten-frames, base-ten blocks, number lines) and contexts; students explain their reasoning and compose/decompose numbers flexibly.
-
Compare and order integers
Litnumia skill: Compare and order integers
Represent numbers with a variety of tools (ten-frames, base-ten blocks, number lines) and contexts; students explain their reasoning and compose/decompose numbers flexibly.
-
Compare fractions with unlike denominators
Litnumia skill: Compare fractions with unlike denominators
Heavy use of visual models (fraction strips, number lines, area models); Ontario says 'fourths'; equivalence and operations reasoned through models before symbols.
-
Divisibility rules
Litnumia skill: Divisibility rules
Equal groups and arrays with tools; students choose among flexible strategies (halving/doubling, partial products) before standard algorithms in later grades.
-
Fraction, decimal and percentage equivalence
Litnumia skill: Fraction, decimal and percentage equivalence
Heavy use of visual models (fraction strips, number lines, area models); Ontario says 'fourths'; equivalence and operations reasoned through models before symbols.
-
Long division
Litnumia skill: Long division
Equal groups and arrays with tools; students choose among flexible strategies (halving/doubling, partial products) before standard algorithms in later grades.
-
Multiply and divide decimals by 10 and 100

Ratios and rates reasoned through proportional situations, double number lines and unit rates.
-
Simple scale factors
Litnumia skill: Simple scale factors
Ratios and rates reasoned through proportional situations, double number lines and unit rates.
