Frequently asked questions
Why does the 6th grade pack review 5th grade math?
A substitute cannot know where a 6th grade class is in the book, and a teacher who is out sick often cannot say. The students multiplied fractions and decimals in 5th grade, so that math is safe on any day of the year, and no one has to be taught anything new.
Can I change what is in the 6th grade pack?
Each activity is a page from this site: Multi-Digit Multiplication, Mixed Operation Word Problems, Spiral Review Worksheets and Color by Number Multiplication. Open one from the list, change its numbers or how many problems it has, and print it on its own. The pack prints ten multiplication problems where that page opens on twenty, so a class has time for all four activities.
