Summary - Grade 6 Gifted and Talented Mathematics is a challenging program designed for students with advanced learning capabilities. Students entering the program are expected to be proficient in basic arithmetic skills with whole numbers, fractions, decimals, and percents. The accelerated pacing of the gifted and talented program demands independent thinkers who will be able through a variety of learning experiences apply algebraic and geometric concepts to solve real-world problems. Students who successfully master course objectives and display a readiness for abstract concepts will enroll in Algebra I in seventh grade. Those students who need continued skill enhancement would take PreAlgebra.
