Grade 6 Math Worksheets

Ages 11–12 · 5 printable sheets

Grade 6 is consolidation and a first look over the wall. Fractions, decimals and factors get their last heavy practice, equations grow a second step and a letter on both sides, and squares and square roots arrive.

What to expect

Expect the work to be less about new methods than about choosing between the ones already known. Simplifying √72 needs the largest square factor rather than the first one spotted, and solving 5x − 2 = 3x + 8 needs the terms collected before anything is undone. Both are judgement rather than procedure, and both take practice to become automatic.

Where to start

Start with whichever of Fractions, Decimals and Factors & Primes is least secure, since grade 6 assumes all three. Squares & Square Roots comes next and leans directly on the factor work. Finish with Solve for x at two steps and then x on both sides, checking every answer by substituting it back — that habit matters more here than the answers do.
