6th Grade Civics - Ms. Harmon

6th Grade Math - Mr. Hemmick

Every month, students will be required to complete 30 topics on Aleks. There are a total of 12 different categories on Aleks that students should be working on. These topics range from fractions and decimals to data analysis and probability. The content in these 12 categories is all the content that all 6th-grade students should, in theory, master. Completing only 30 topics a month will not allow students to complete every single category. However, between in-class instruction and filling in any gaps with the topics, students should be in a great place with their overall math comprehension. This is also the best way to get extra credit! Each pie slice the student completes is worth 10 extra credit points. That is a total of 120 extra credit points possible for the school year!

One thing we love about the topics is that if a student ever completes their own Topic Wheel, then Aleks will assign them a brand new wheel, but with 7th-grade standards! If you find that your student needs either some extra work to touch upon specific content, or you want them to push themselves further in math, topics are a fantastic tool to do that!
