CSAS 6TH GRADE MATHEMATICS WELCOME LETTER

Dear Rising 6th Graders and Parents,

Greetings! I am delighted to share the upcoming school year with you in Sixth Grade Mathematics. I know

you have learned a tremendous amount of math skills from Ms. Krause to better prepare you for our exploration in

6th Grade Math. We will be exploring fractions, ratios, rates, decimals, number lines, absolute value, graphing,

expressions, equations, inequalities, polygons, area, volume, and data analysisjust to name a few!

If you are wondering about summer math packets or how to prepare for middle school mathematics, my

advice is simplecontinue mastering your basic math facts! There will be moments in which you will be expected

to compute and solve math problems without a calculator. So, it is important that you practice the basic math skills

of adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing single and multi-digit numbers. To assist you this summer, I have

included links to practice websites below:
