Math 6 Adv: In this course students will study the entire grade 6 Common Core curriculum and additional grade 7 topics from the Common Core curriculum. Additional topics include: operations with integers, operations with rational numbers, algebraic expressions, solving two-step equations, ratios and rates, and proportions. The intention of this course is to provide the foundational concepts necessary to prepare students to take Math 7 Adv. in grade 7. Students are expected to demonstrate understanding and proficiency in the topics taught in order to be recommended to take Math 7 Adv.
