Standards Covered
- OGM.7.NS.1Open Global Math Standards 2026™ · Math · Level 7 / Grade 6 (Age 11) · Grade 6Read, write, compare, and order positive and negative rational numbers (integers, finite decimals, proper/improper fractions, and mixed numbers) on horizontal and vertical number lines; interpret statements of inequality as relative positions on a number line.
- OGM.7.NS.6Open Global Math Standards 2026™ · Math · Level 7 / Grade 6 (Age 11) · Grade 6Perform arithmetic operations on integers fluently using concrete models, number line representations, and formal algorithms; solve multi-step problems involving additive and multiplicative integer relationships.
- OGM.7.NS.2Open Global Math Standards 2026™ · Math · Level 7 / Grade 6 (Age 11) · Grade 6Understand absolute value of a rational number as its distance from zero on the number line; interpret absolute value as magnitude in real-world contexts (elevation, temperature, financial balance/debt) and distinguish comparisons of absolute value from statements of order.
