Math 6
Our RISE 6 mathematicians engage in a variety of collaborative activities to accomplish grade level standards. Our class covers lessons on integers and rational numbers, algebraic expressions, equations, inequalities, rates and ratios, percents, geometry and uses of data. Students love using IXL, iReady, and Nearpod to practice skills, and most importantly, we build a strong community within our virtual classroom where students boost their self-confidence and make lots of friends.
