IXL Math Practice

Hi 6th Graders,

I'm super excited for us to have IXL at Neely! This is a great program where you can practice math at all different levels. I get to track your progress and watch you succeed as you move through the lessons! Maybe we could even think of fun rewards for students who spend time working on IXL!
 
 
You will have to use your unique login and password to begin IXL. I will give that to you in computer lab!!

Geometry Fun!

Dear 6th Grade Families,
 
The 6th graders and I had a great time exploring an online math tool called a geoboard. We use geoboards in class when learning about polygons and other geometric vocabulary. I asked the students to challenge themselves by making their names and unique designs, and then try naming the different polygons that they see in their creations. Here are just SOME of the images that they came up with!
 
 
Feel free to experiment with the online geoboard at home here!

That Quiz!

Hi 6th graders! Today we are going to start our work with www.thatquiz.org. I bet some of you have used this website before to practice math and other skills! You are always more than welcome to use That Quiz to take quizzes and practice different skills that we talk about in class (or even skills that we don't talk about in class!)

Sometimes, I will give you a code to type in that will take you to a quiz that I have designed specially for you! That is what we will be doing today. Your quiz for today is:

 
Copy this code and past it into www.thatquiz.org. It should bring you to a list of our class, where you can find your name, and take your quiz. Good luck!!

Math Fact Websites

We spent the last couple days checking in with the level of our math fact skills. Now, when I use the term "math fact" I am referring to those basic multiplication and division facts that we all know and love (9x2, 5x6, etc.). For the most part, I am SUPER impressed with the level of skill our class has shown with their math facts!

We took two quick assessments; one multiplication and one division. Each had 100 facts and I gave the 6th graders 4 minutes to complete them. 6th graders, you know your scores and hopefully you actually showed your parents when you took them home!! (If not, I have their scores written down!). If you did not finish all 100 facts in 4 minutes, I suggest you take some time to brush up on those math fact skills. If you did finish 100 facts in 4 minutes, CONGRATS....but it's still good to keep your skills sharp by continuing to practice.

Flashcards are always a great tool for practicing facts. Also, these websites provide excellent practice!!

 
All of these sites give you the option to choose addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. We are all unique learners who are working at different levels, so choose the area that best fits your personal math needs! Keep in mind, my goal for ALL 6TH GRADERS is to be fact fluent with both multiplication and division.
