Math 6

VDOE Resources - 6th Grade:
2009 SOL   Curriculum Framework   Testing Blueprint   2001-2009 Crosswalk

      Important Note for 2011-12
      The SOL Testing Blueprint for Math 6 has been revised: The "no calculator section" is no longer
      comprised of only the Computation & Estimation Standards and students will be permitted to use
      a calculator on some C & E Standards.

      The following Standards will be tested without the use of a calculator:

      Number & Number Sense
      6.2c Demonstrate equivalent relationships among fractions, decimals, and percents
      6.2d Compare and order fractions, decimals, and percents

      Computation & Estimation
      6.6a Multiply and divide fractions and mixed numbers
      6.8 Evaluate whole number numerical expressions, using the order of operations

      Calculators will be permitted on test items addressing the following Standards:

      Computation & Estimation
      6.6b Estimate solutions and then solve single-step and multistep practical problems involving
      addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of fractions
      6.7 Solve single-step and multistep practical problems involving addition, subtraction,
      multiplication, and division of decimals

      All other Number & Number Sense Standards, as well as all of the Measurement, Geometry,
      Probability & Statistics
, and Patterns, Functions, & Algebra Standards will be assessed in the
      calculator section.
