Grade 6 math, live.

The year algebra begins. Number theory and sets, then ratio, percentage and the first linear equations, then geometry and real data. Introduced slowly, with enough practice that x never becomes the thing your child dreads.

36 weeks. Every idea in order.

Our own curriculum for each grade. Nothing comes before the idea it depends on, so nothing has to be memorized without being understood. It goes beyond the basic grade-level sequence, with more time for reasoning, connections and problem solving.

Term 1: Number theory and the language of sets

Weeks 1 to 12

We go under the arithmetic your child already does and show them the structure beneath it. This is the groundwork that makes algebra feel obvious rather than arbitrary.

  • Whole numbers, patterns and properties
  • Integers: ordering, addition and subtraction with signs
  • Sets, notation and Venn diagrams
  • Divisibility, prime factorisation, HCF and LCM

Term 2: The term algebra begins

Weeks 13 to 24

The moment a student meets the letter x, and often decides how they feel about math. We introduce it early, slowly, and with enough practice that it never becomes the thing they dread.

  • Decimals, ratio, proportion and the unitary method
  • Percentage in real situations: discount and tax
  • Speed, time and distance
  • Variables, expressions and linear equations

Term 3: Geometry, construction and real data

Weeks 25 to 36

Compass and straightedge in hand. Your child learns to construct a figure precisely and to read a graph critically. Those two things separate a confident student from one who is only following steps.

  • Lines, angle pairs, triangles and quadrilaterals
  • Constructions with compass and straightedge
  • Perimeter and area, including composite figures
  • Mean, median, mode and interpreting graphs

What your family gets each term

The full Grade 6 outline
  • A print-ready student book for every week
  • A homework set for each of the days between classes
  • An answer key, so a child can mark their own work honestly
  • Advanced challenge problems for students who finish early
  • Mastery checks before the program moves on
  • A teacher guide with every answer worked, so any instructor delivers the same lesson

Solve for x: 3x + 7 = 22

From Grade 6: linear equations

How the laps add up

No leaderboards and no class rankings. Four steps, every week, and the only time your child is racing is their own last one.

  1. Lane 1: Find the starting line

    A free 20-minute assessment gives you a clear first picture of where your child is today. It is optional, and it becomes the baseline every later result is measured against.

  2. Lane 2: Three live classes a week

    Small groups on Zoom with a carefully selected instructor, working through our own 36-week curriculum one idea at a time. Missed a class? The recording stays up for 30 days.

  3. Lane 3: Practice in between

    Short sets on the days between classes, marked the moment they are handed in, so a mistake gets fixed while the lesson is still fresh.

  4. Lane 4: A report every Friday

    What they handed in, what they can do now, and the one topic worth ten minutes this weekend. Straight to your inbox, no login.

Small group · Live

Small groups, so there's room to ask.

We keep each group small, so questions get answered live, by the teacher, and a stuck child can be noticed early, not months later.

Grade 6 questions

Why does Grade 6 matter so much?

It is the year most children meet the letter x and decide how they feel about math for the rest of school. We introduce algebra early and slowly, on top of the number sense it depends on.

My child is strong at math but bored. Will this challenge them?

Yes. The groups work through ratio, proportion and linear equations rather than repeating what a strong student already knows, and the free assessment shows how far they can already go.

Can my child start partway through the year?

Yes. The free assessment shows where they fit, and a free class lets the teacher confirm it before you pay anything.

How much practice is there, and is it checked?

A short set on each day between classes, marked the moment it is handed in, so mistakes get fixed while the lesson is fresh. You get a summary every Friday.

So, how far can your child go?

Twenty minutes and it's free. Their starting point is the only one that counts.
