What students practice
Students start by substituting a value to decide whether an equation is true and by picking the one value from a set that works. Bar models and situations then become equations, and four pages solve addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division equations with whole numbers, fractions, and decimals. A decoding page, a solve-then-check page, and write-and-solve stories finish the packet.
What's inside
- p. 3
True or False?
Substitute the value into each equation, then circle True or False.
- p. 4
Solve From a Set
Test each value in the set, then write the one that makes the equation true.
- p. 5
Bar Models to Equations
Write an equation that matches each bar model, then answer the last question.
- p. 6
Equations From Situations
Write an equation for each situation, then answer the last question.
- p. 7
Addition and Subtraction
Solve each equation, then answer the last question.
- p. 8
Multiplication Equations
Solve each equation, then answer the last question.
- p. 9
Division Equations
Solve each equation, then answer the last question.
- p. 10
Fractions and Decimals
Solve each equation, then answer the last question.
- p. 11
Solve and Decode
Solve each equation, find the answer in the code, then fill in the riddle.
- p. 12
Solve, Then Check
Solve each equation, then check your answer by substituting it.
- p. 13
Write and Solve
Write an equation for each problem, then solve it to answer the question.
- p. 14
Mixed Review
Solve each problem, then check your work.
Georgia standards covered
6.PAR.7.1
Solve one-step equations and inequalities involving variables when values for the variables are given. Determine whether an equation and inequality involving a variable is true or false for a given value of the variable.
In this packet: pages 3, 4, 12, and 14. 6.PAR.7.1 practice in all our packets
6.PAR.7.2
Write one-step equations and inequalities to represent and solve problems; explain that a variable can represent an unknown number or any number in a specified set.
In this packet: pages 5, 6, 13, and 14. 6.PAR.7.2 practice in all our packets
6.PAR.7.3
Solve problems by writing and solving equations of the form x ± p = q, px = q and x/p = q for cases in which p, q and x are all nonnegative rational numbers.
In this packet: pages 7 to 14. 6.PAR.7.3 practice in all our packets
Who it's for
Grade 6 classes on the equation half of Georgia's equations and inequalities standard; our Inequalities packet is the other half. Every value is positive and every equation takes exactly one step.
