Mathematics
By the end of grade six, students have mastered the four arithmetic operations with whole numbers, positive rational numbers, positive decimals, and positive and negative integers; they accurately compute and solve problems. They find prime factorizations, least common multiples, and greatest common factors. They create, evaluate, and simplify expressions, and solve equations involving two operations and a single variable. They solve problems involving an unknown angle in a triangle or quadrilateral, and use properties of complementary and supplementary angles. Students know about π as the ratio between the circumference and the diameter of a circle and solve problems using the formulas for the circumference and area of a circle. Students analyze, draw conclusions, and make predictions based upon data and apply basic concepts of probability.
