6th grade (U.S.) Math Mission

The 6th Grade (U.S.) Math Mission was a set of skills on Khan Academy. This mission consisted of foundational material and then proceeded into ratios, operations on positive rational numbers, concepts with negative numbers, Least Common Multiple (LCM) and Greatest Common Factor (GCF), the coordinate plane, area formulas, familiarity with variables and expressions and finally data summary and display. Due to the June update and transitioning of Khan Academy, missions have been removed forever. They have now been replaced with Course Mastery.
