Free Printable Sixth Grade Worksheets For Easy Practice!

It amazes me how most curriculum skips practice. Publishers must figure that parents and teachers will simply go the extra mile.

Enter: printable sixth grade worksheets that offer practice!

I've based this site upon the principle that there are ways to practice the basics without having to "guess and check" or spend hours and hours dreaming up drills for kids to learn their facts.

Most printable worksheet sites offer what amounts to quizzes. Now your students can have a practice run first! 

Since there are so many different topics and levels taught in any one sixth grade program, you will find many useful worksheets outside this level. If you've been following through this site through the last several years, these pages are the next level up.

Teaching Sixth Grade

So often, our children reach sixth grade without the basics.

Or they've forgotten everything they've ever learned. Somehow.

This is the very reason that many teachers and parents find our site. If you're hoping to remedy a deficiency in your students' learning, different levels from this whole site can be very useful. 

Simply use the search bar at the bottom of every page for the concept your students need to practice, like "fraction worksheets".

Usually there's less need for practice worksheets in this grade because students are beginning to read to learn about other things in a more comprehensive way. 

Learning to read is one thing, reading to learn opens the whole world. This is the beginning of the journey of a lifetime for each of your children.

1. Printable Sixth Grade Worksheets For Math

Review and practice the basics.

Many sixth graders are not familiar enough with their early  math  facts because they never had the time and the help necessary to memorize them, or because they've been using calculators and are a bit rusty.

In this case our Math facts videos, printable flash cards, and other printable sixth grade worksheets are sooo helpful.

Move On To Bigger And Better

These next worksheets require low teacher or parent involvement once your students have been introduced to the concepts.

Kids can work on their own once you download (print or share files) the math worksheets. Print and practice!

Sixth Grade Math Word Problems

So many times math is not the problem for those who struggle with math word problems.

Sometimes it's a grammar difficulty where the logic of the sentences does not make sense. See if diagramming the sentences helps them see the actual question being asked.

Often it's a reading problem. See below for my heartiest recommendation, if reading is hard for your sixth graders.

Mathway Problem Solver

Mathway has awesome problem solvers for more technical math problems and higher level math. 

It is one of our visitors' favorite math tools .

2. 6th Grade Reading

Phonics basics.

I frequently see sixth graders who cannot read well.

Our phonics videos, flash cards and worksheets can be a big help here because they offer quick review in a painless format - not another quiz.

Refresh these concepts first.

Our advanced phonics video lessons work well with our printable phonics worksheets and make quick practice for older students. The phonics rules can be a giant help for both 6th grade Reading and Spelling. 

Will The Real Sixth Grade Reading Level Please Stand?

By the time your students are at the sixth Grade Reading level they're usually not simply learning to read. They are able to read to learn. Kids learn all the time, yet now they're learning and learning how to learn from their reading.

Supposedly.

Usually there's not much teaching left to do in 6th Grade Reading, at least as far as the mechanics of reading go.

Really, if kids will write more they'll learn to read better so be sure to take a look at  Karen Newell's creative writing ideas in her Write On book . Both are available as downloads.

Teaching Grammar

Hang In There, Reading Gets Easier

For some students, all they have to do is to keep on "keepin' on".

The more writing and reading that your students do in other classes, the more chance they'll have of improving their comprehension. This is good to know when things look overwhelming. A child may struggle today, and may thrive later - even real soon if they're working at it.

Be encouraged.

Only rarely is it true that a whole sixth Grade class is at the same experience and maturity level, so their comprehension of ideas is affected here as well.

You already know that the best reading activity is to read.

Writing Helps Reading Skills

By sixth grade most students have had a hand at writing their own essays and book reports so they appreciate reading from a different perspective.

Generally, they have an idea of the work involved in creating a story and are a bit more interested in the stories of others. This is when good histories and biographies become interesting.

If your students are interested in the books they are reading, they'll read them better.

Either edify the books you require or suggest light titles that are of interesting topics. Be excited so that your students will be excited.

Many students really appreciate suggestions of books to choose because it can be hard to stand amongst the shelves wondering which book to is a good choice. Not to mention the siren call of electronics.

You'll find that your students will work harder through books in which they have an interest, even if the reading level is a bit high. Once they've read several tougher books they'll have an easier time reading the day to day material. One hard book covers most of the skills needed for a lifetime.

Remember the value of writing. Old timers like in Laura Ingalls Wilder's stories wrote from a book to a slate as the main way to practice their work. They did not have reams of loose leaf paper to spend on writing.

Writing? It's a great way to learn. Teachers and college students take notes from their reading all day long. Writing does aid both reading and memory work.

Romalda Spalding's Writing Road To Reading

How to teach reading.

We're not usually teaching reading to sixth graders as most usually have this skill. I say this often this site, yet I'd be remiss not to mention it here; I really learned "how to teach reading" as an art after using the  Writing Road To Reading  by Romalda Spalding.

Reading came fairly easily to me. It did not come easily for some of my children, and that was heart breaking for all of us.

In our family  Grandpa  came to the rescue in this case. He decided to take the Spalding courses in Phoenix, Arizona and came home ready to teach the basics to all of his grandchildren.

Go Back To TRUE Basics

Within two months Grandpa had had such good results with our children and local nieces and nephews that others were asking to join us at our homes.

Soon he opened his own home for the purpose of teaching phonics and in the course of the next few years before his final illness he had helped over 60 other families for free.

He's the reason we keep our PrintNPractice resources free.

• Yes, you can buy our worksheets in bundles ; but all of them and more are available free on this site.

We were all astonished at how basic phonics lessons really improved the reading skills of our older children , too.

At first they felt awkward learning the sounds and the rules; but by the time the next quarter came they could already see an improvement in their reading. They were unanimously grateful to have had to study phonics even at a late time.

One child conveyed to me her joy that not only did her spelling grade improve, but it was so much easier to study her history and science classes. Even Math was a bit easier simply because her reading was easier.

The  Writing Road To Reading  also has a great sixth grade reading list so you have an idea of some classic books that have interested children for years. I heartily recommend this book.

3. Printable Sixth Grade Worksheets for Spelling

Printable 6th grade spelling words & worksheets.

Half the battle with children learning their sixth grade spelling words is making sure that they copy the words correctly the first time.

Our spelling list for sixth grade has much longer words than the words in our lower levels. They frequently use several variations on a base word for easier Vocabulary work.

Your students will see the Spelling rules in action in the different spellings of derived words and be able to make connections when learning other new words.

Seeing the different versions of words with their different prefixes and suffixes also teaches Vocabulary skills. These same Vocabulary skills transfer to other words, too.

6th Grade Spelling List, 8 Pages

The first download has an eight page list of Spelling words to use through the year. Print them double sided for reference to keep on your desk or in your binder.

6th Grade Spelling Worksheets, 98 pages

The second download has ninety-eight pages including the same Spelling word list on the left; so, at first, it will look to be the same download.

It has the Spelling worksheets for these same words that have space to copy the words three times.

Sixth Grade Spelling Ideas

Create spelling lists from reading books.

This is a super efficient way to improve spelling for anyone.

One hundred years ago most readers used this method and they even marked the phonics sounds .

Use your students' reading books to find new words or complicated words and then create your own Spelling list for those words.

Do it ahead of time so that the reading is easier and makes better sense. Once your students have then read the material, they'll have a better understanding of the meaning of the words used.

You can use this idea in History and Science classes, too, even Math classes since reading is half the trouble with word problems. We have ruled spelling sheets on our  Lined Writing Paper  page that you can use to make your unique spelling lists for copywork.

You can buy our  K-6 spelling worksheets in one bundle  with convenient files. This also includes our phonics spelling words.

Personal Spelling List

This is an ancient idea and you can do it two ways.

• Write words your children have trouble reading.
• Have them write those words.

Assign those words to practice three times each till they are no longer hard to spell.

Do you know what?

Knowing that there's more work later for not knowing their words often motivates kids to get it right the first time. :-)

Speller Notebook

I know several children who simply kept a separate notebook to study the words that they had missed.

Others simply kept a list at the back of the notebook they were using for class. This keeps the words close and handy through the year.

4. 6th Grade Grammar And Writing

Sixth Grade is a time when students should be able to construct sentences on their own, capitalize and punctuate, and even diagram simple sentences.

By 6th Grade writing class, most children are able to write from memory, but it is grammar that is the bugaboo. Check out our grammar pages for diagrams, capitalization, and punctuation.

Understanding the use of words can be a trick. How do words describe other words? Seeing the use of words on a diagram can be most helpful. Our diagramming worksheets show the parts of speech in their correct places.

The next trick is finding creative writing ideas that appeal to 6th graders.

We have practice Grammar worksheets that include diagramming charts and the definitions as well as place for the children to practice what is being taught.

My favorite writing courses for children include creative Writing ideas .

Oh, those loveable 6th graders! What would middle school be like with out them? Here are all of my reading worksheets that were written at the 6th grade level. I used this fantastic site to determine the readability scores of these worksheets, but you should read and approve them yourself before giving them to your students. Readability scores are not perfect and there are many different algorithms to determine readability scores. I use an average of these scores, but they can vary wildly. For these reasons, I encourage you to open up the reading levels two grade levels in each direction. This will give you a good selection of texts that are appropriate for a 6th grade student to read.

Use them as you feel that they will best assist you and your students in reaching your goals. This is kind of what I did when I was teaching: https://www.ereadingworksheets.com/e-reading-worksheets/reading-unit-and-lesson-plans-aligned-with-common-core-state-standards/

AN EXCELLENT WEBSITE

This is a great website for children to read and for teachers to provide. As a student it is recommended for students and teachers.

there should be only chose the answer not question answer but anyway it is a nice website i hope you will improve this thing and one last thing please give small comprehension or passage

Most teachers like it when students are required to explain their answers. It adds reflection and expression to the exercises. I do understand that when you are working on these by yourself, you may not be interested in answering short response questions. In that case, you can disable them on the screen where you enter your name. The option box is in the top right corner. Best wishes.

yes, i am with you i cannot study when i only go down with arrow i see the answer .

so please this app should respect our decisions

I’m confused as to what your decisions are and how I could improve my respect toward your decisions.

TOO GOOD! JUST LOVED IT! KEEP UP THE GOOD JOB!!!

These worksheets are the absolute best I have encountered thus far. Can you point me in the direction of some myth worksheets? Thanks.

Thank you for this resource. It is amazing and has proven to be invaluable. I appreciate your hard work and thoughtfulness. I have learnt so much from you as an educator and so have the children I work with. Thelma

Thank you for the kind words. They are inspiring. Best wishes!

Mr. Morton, could you check the answers for The Story of Keesh worksheet #’s 1 and 2? I believe the answers on the worksheet may be reversed, with the correct answer for 1 being “D”, and the correct answer for 2 being “A”. The electronic version provides different solutions than the worksheet answer key. Thanks in advance for reviewing, and great resource!

You are absolutely right. I have amended the key.

hi, there is a typo I think above in your entry paragraph: “What would middle school be like with out them?” I think without must be written as one word. otherwise your site is amazing!

I love this website. It is so helpful to me and to others. I love this website alot.

Julia Bettis

I don’t know why these aren’t available in pdf format. I can’t open the RTF files without some of the text missing or blocked out.

They are available as PDFs.

thank you for providing such a wonderful resource… though I have purchased other resources, they do not measure up… I have constantly returned to this site for better quality passages and questions… thank you and you are APPRECIATED!!!

That’s nice of you to say. I’m always working to provide new and better resources. Come back again!

This was so very helpful for me, now I have vacation homework that will help for sixth grade

Michelle Montalvo

Thank you SOO Much for providing this resource. I was looking for worksheets that I can use to avoid the “summer slump”. This was amazing!!

This website has been a wonderful resource! I am in my pre-student teaching phase and I have been tasked to work with a student that is three grades levels below in reading. Sometimes it is difficult to judge readability and this website has made it easy for me to select activities to support her goals. Thank you so much!

I’m so happy to hear it. Best wishes.

This is hands down the best resource of its kind on the internet (at least that I have come across… and I’m Google-happy). Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You saved me sooo much time and effort (and I still wouldn’t have been able to do it quite as well). Thank you, thank you and thank you for taking the time. I’m sure it was a labor of love.

6th Grade Common Core Worksheets

The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for English Language Arts (ELA) provide a framework of educational expectations for students in reading, writing, and other language skills. The goals of the CCSS ELA are broken out by grade and subject area, including Reading: Literature, Reading: Informational Text, Writing, Speaking and Listening, and Language, as well as expectations in additional subject areas such as science and technology, history, and further writing areas. Sixth graders are expected to master the basics of reading fiction and non-fiction books, learn deeper writing and grammar skills, grow in their oral presentations, collaborations, use of technology and the complexity of their reading choices. See the subheadings for each ELA category for more information on the specific expectations for students.

6th Grade CCSS: Reading: Informational Text

6th grade ccss:reading: literature, 6th grade language, 6th grade speaking and listening, 6th grade writing.

Grade Calculator

Use this calculator to find out the grade of a course based on weighted averages. This calculator accepts both numerical as well as letter grades. It also can calculate the grade needed for the remaining assignments in order to get a desired grade for an ongoing course.

Final Grade Calculator

Use this calculator to find out the grade needed on the final exam in order to get a desired grade in a course. It accepts letter grades, percentage grades, and other numerical inputs.

Related GPA Calculator

The calculators above use the following letter grades and their typical corresponding numerical equivalents based on grade points.

Brief history of different grading systems

In 1785, students at Yale were ranked based on "optimi" being the highest rank, followed by second optimi, inferiore (lower), and pejores (worse). At William and Mary, students were ranked as either No. 1, or No. 2, where No. 1 represented students that were first in their class, while No. 2 represented those who were "orderly, correct and attentive." Meanwhile at Harvard, students were graded based on a numerical system from 1-200 (except for math and philosophy where 1-100 was used). Later, shortly after 1883, Harvard used a system of "Classes" where students were either Class I, II, III, IV, or V, with V representing a failing grade. All of these examples show the subjective, arbitrary, and inconsistent nature with which different institutions graded their students, demonstrating the need for a more standardized, albeit equally arbitrary grading system.

In 1887, Mount Holyoke College became the first college to use letter grades similar to those commonly used today. The college used a grading scale with the letters A, B, C, D, and E, where E represented a failing grade. This grading system however, was far stricter than those commonly used today, with a failing grade being defined as anything below 75%. The college later re-defined their grading system, adding the letter F for a failing grade (still below 75%). This system of using a letter grading scale became increasingly popular within colleges and high schools, eventually leading to the letter grading systems typically used today. However, there is still significant variation regarding what may constitute an A, or whether a system uses plusses or minuses (i.e. A+ or B-), among other differences.

An alternative to the letter grading system

Letter grades provide an easy means to generalize a student's performance. They can be more effective than qualitative evaluations in situations where "right" or "wrong" answers can be easily quantified, such as an algebra exam, but alone may not provide a student with enough feedback in regards to an assessment like a written paper (which is much more subjective).

Although a written analysis of each individual student's work may be a more effective form of feedback, there exists the argument that students and parents are unlikely to read the feedback, and that teachers do not have the time to write such an analysis. There is precedence for this type of evaluation system however, in Saint Ann's School in New York City, an arts-oriented private school that does not have a letter grading system. Instead, teachers write anecdotal reports for each student. This method of evaluation focuses on promoting learning and improvement, rather than the pursuit of a certain letter grade in a course. For better or for worse however, these types of programs constitute a minority in the United States, and though the experience may be better for the student, most institutions still use a fairly standard letter grading system that students will have to adjust to. The time investment that this type of evaluation method requires of teachers/professors is likely not viable on university campuses with hundreds of students per course. As such, although there are other high schools such as Sanborn High School that approach grading in a more qualitative way, it remains to be seen whether such grading methods can be scalable. Until then, more generalized forms of grading like the letter grading system are unlikely to be entirely replaced. However, many educators already try to create an environment that limits the role that grades play in motivating students. One could argue that a combination of these two systems would likely be the most realistic, and effective way to provide a more standardized evaluation of students, while promoting learning.
