What educators are saying

I appreciate the initial assessments to start the year off with understanding what students know and what they will need to know.
Though lengthy -- definitely chunk this out which is suggested in the resource (thank you for that!), this is an excellent resource to gauge where your students are at the beginning of their 6th-grade year. I will definitely be using this each year.

Description

This back to school math pretest assesses students’ knowledge of prerequisite standards necessary for students to grasp before introducing a 6th grade CCSS.


Included:

  • 138 total questions that test the prerequisite standards necessary to be ready to move onto the 6th grade standards. Questions are separated by 6th grade domain, such as NS, RP, etc.
  • Answer key
  • Breakdown of the 6th grade standards and the matching prerequisite standards
  • Tables for data collection (available in PDF, PowerPoint, and Google Slides versions)

Page Breakdown:

  • Questions: 25 pages
  • Answer Key: 13 pages
  • Breakdown of standards: 4 pages
  • Tables for data collection: 42 pages
  • Document Explanation: 4 pages


How is this pre-assessment different than other 6th grade pre-assessments?

Most 6th grade math pre-assessments simply test all the 5th grade CCSS. This pre-assessment is NOT like that. This pre-assessment matches the CCSS to the standard taught in a previous grade level that is necessary before introducing the 6th grade standard. Therefore, the standards tested include some 5th grade standards and some 3rd and 4th grade standards.

How will this pre-assessment help me and my students?

This will help because you will be able to identify standards that students might not be proficient in prior to teaching a standard. By knowing this information ahead of time, you can assist those struggling students in understanding the prerequisite standard before introducing your 6th grade standard. You will have the knowledge to fill in the gaps prior to a lesson as opposed to discovering a gap after you’ve already taught a lesson.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Know relative sizes of measurement units within one system of units including km, m, cm; kg, g; lb, oz.; l, ml; hr, min, sec. Within a single system of measurement, express measurements in a larger unit in terms of a smaller unit. Record measurement equivalents in a two-column table. For example, know that 1 ft is 12 times as long as 1 in. Express the length of a 4 ft snake as 48 in. Generate a conversion table for feet and inches listing the number pairs (1, 12), (2, 24), (3, 36),...
Apply the area and perimeter formulas for rectangles in real world and mathematical problems. For example, find the width of a rectangular room given the area of the flooring and the length, by viewing the area formula as a multiplication equation with an unknown factor.
Make a line plot to display a data set of measurements in fractions of a unit (1/2, 1/4, 1/8). Use operations on fractions for this grade to solve problems involving information presented in line plots. For example, given different measurements of liquid in identical beakers, find the amount of liquid each beaker would contain if the total amount in all the beakers were redistributed equally.
Relate volume to the operations of multiplication and addition and solve real world and mathematical problems involving volume.
Explain patterns in the number of zeros of the product when multiplying a number by powers of 10, and explain patterns in the placement of the decimal point when a decimal is multiplied or divided by a power of 10. Use whole-number exponents to denote powers of 10.
