Welcome to 6th grade math!
In this course students will be learning how to interpret and compute quotients of fractions, and solve word problems involving division of fractions by fractions. Students will be learning these six different skills: Finding least common denominators, solving for equivalent fractions, converting mixed numbers and improper fractions, adding and subtracting fractions and mixed numbers with unlike denominators, multiplying fractions and mixed numbers , and dividing fractions and mixed numbers using the acronym KCF (keep, change, flip). By the end of his course, students will be able to compute fluently with multi-digit numbers using the standard algorithm and find common factors and multiples. There will be weekly fraction quizzes throughout the course as well.
