Explanation: Math Key Concepts
The grade 6 year is important for students because it is a year of mathematics consolidation and foundation building. During the year, students continue to work with rational numbers in both fraction and decimal forms and begin to develop a solid basis for work with rates, ratios, and proportions. In Measurement, their focus is mastery of the perimeter and areas of triangles and quadrilaterals. Students estimate measures based upon an intuitive sense of relative sizes of common units. In Geometry, the students extend their knowledge of two-dimensional figures to three-dimensional counterparts, as well as apply concepts and properties related to basic geometry vocabulary and angle measures in real-life situations. Students make and test predictions regarding tessellations and use coordinate geometry in the first quadrant to locate points and investigate simple figures.
In the fields of data and chance, grade 6 students represent and evaluate data using frequency tables, scatter plots, stem-and-leaf plots, and Venn diagrams. They use mean, median, mode, and range to describe and analyze patterns in data sets. They also employ Venn diagrams to analyze arguments and solve simple problems involving inclusion and exclusion. Students use lists, tree diagrams, and tables to determine the possible combinations when choosing one item from each of two disjoint sets.
Grade 6 students match algebraic expressions with their verbal counterparts and evaluate such expressions using substitution. Students model and identify perfect squares, as well as find solutions to two-step equations having positive integer solutions. They also describe patterns found in tables and in sequences of arithmetic and multiplicative growth.

selected substances (PS-M-A3)
Jeanette is studying a substance. Which property of the substance is chemical?
A its density B its temperatureC its melting point D its flammability Correct response: D
Match to GLE: This item asks students to identify a chemical property.
Other grade 6 iLEAP items that measure this GLE may ask students to identify or describe physical properties.

“Our constitution does not copy the laws of neighboring states; we are rather a pattern to others .
[Our government] favors the many instead of the few; this is why it is called a democracy. If we look to the laws, they [give] equal justice to all . . .
The freedom which we enjoy in our government extends also to our ordinary life.”
—Thucydides, ancient historian

Sample ItemsGeographyPlaces and RegionsGLE 2—Identify land and climatic conditions conducive to
human settlement in regions of the world and describe the role of these conditions (G-1B-M1)
Many early civilizations were called riverine cultures because they developed near rivers.
How did the rivers contribute to the survival of these civilizations? A They were a power source for mechanical devices such as waterwheels.B They provided a route for transporting goods to other civilizations.C They provided a fresh water supply and rich soil for growing food.D They formed protective barriers around civilizations. Correct response: CMatch to GLE: This item asks students to explain the significance of rivers to early civilizations. Other grade 6 iLEAP items that measure
this GLE may relate to other land or climatic conditions and their roles.
