What students practice
Pages 3 to 6 are a warm-up on like, related, and unlike denominators from Grades 4 and 5, and they carry no Grade 6 code. Pages 7 to 14 are the Grade 6 work: estimating with benchmarks, adding mixed numbers and renaming the extra whole, subtracting with renaming, three numbers at once, a self-checking code, recipe and building problems, and estimate, then solve.

Who it's for
Grade 6 classes building fluency with fractions, including students who need a short common-denominator review first. Every answer key has a worked line under each answer that names the common denominator and shows any renaming.
