6th grade · The Number System
Understand the absolute value of a rational number as its distance from 0 on the number line; interpret absolute value as magnitude for a positive or negative quantity in a real-world situation. *For example, for an account balance of -30 dollars, write |-30| = 30 to describe the size of the debt in dollars*.
3 interactive, auto-graded activities for 6th grade students practising 6.NS.C.7c. Mini Labs put the standard to work in a real scenario; Skill Practice builds fluency on the standard alone. Every one is randomized per student, so each learner gets their own numbers.
This is a sub-standard of 6.NS.C.7.
Grade 6 interactive worksheet where students act as junior stock analysts, interpreting signed number changes, writing inequalities, calculating absolute values, and completing a structured analyst report. Auto-graded with randomized stock data.
Grade 6 interactive worksheet where students navigate a research submarine through the Pacific Ocean, logging depths, calculating signed changes, and discovering absolute value. Auto-graded with randomized values.
Labs run 2 to 4 class periods and connect several standards into one project.
Research Station Zero is a multi-worksheet project suitable for Grade 6 and 7 number system, turning the strand into one Antarctic survival mission. Students map a station, average sub-zero temperatures, ration food, calculate fuel and walking distance, pack supplies with GCF and LCM, and brief the commander with their final escape plan. Built for Grade 6, it also works in Grade . Auto-graded, scenario-driven, and Common Core aligned.
