6th grade TEKS math worksheets

42 of 51 6th grade student expectations with a printable sheet · Ages 11–12

The wording beside each code is our own short summary of what the student expectation asks for, not its official text. For that, see Texas Administrative Code Chapter 111.

Not a worksheet

These expectations have no sheet, for two different reasons. Listing them is the point — a catalog that showed only the hits would say this grade is fuller than it is.

Personal financial literacy (8) — a TEKS strand with no Common Core equivalent, and one Math Picnic has never built for. This is a gap, not a mismatch.

6.14ACompare the features and costs of a checking account and a debit card.
6.14BDistinguish between debit cards and credit cards.
6.14CBalance a check register with deposits, withdrawals and transfers.

6.14HCompare salaries by level of education and their effect on lifetime income.

6.9C — Write a real-world problem for a given one-step equation or inequality.

The expectation is writing a STORY for a given equation. Our word-problem sheets go the other way — a story to solve — and a generated sheet cannot mark an invented context.
