Product Description
by Kwang S. Ko (Author)
This is a study guide written primarily for 6th graders in order for them to learn relevant math concepts at their level. There is an introduction before each chapter that describes what will be covered. Chapter 1 deals with number sense in order for the student to learn how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide with integers. Chapter 2 teaches how to identify number sense based on the number system, algebraic expression, and order of operation. Also the student will learn about graphing functions included plotting the coordinates, making function tables, and determining the equation from the function table. Chapter 3 covers solving problems involving adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing decimals and fractions. Chapter 4 introduces problems that involve fractions, decimals, and percentages that can apply to the student's daily life. Chapter 5 classifies the different kinds of solids, and demonstrates how to find the various surface areas and volumes of solids, such as pyramids, prisms, and spheres. Chapter 6 covers the range, mean, median, and mode of data sets. Also, the student will learn about statistics, data analysis, and probability. Each concept has a step-by-step explanation on how to approach the problems. Afterwards, there is a self- test that assesses the knowledge of the student.
