Introduction
Go Math Grade 6 and ArgoPrep Grade 6 both set the industry standard for exceptional supplemental instruction.
Because of the diminishing time available for instruction, paired with the growing list of standards and expectations for teachers to cover during a traditional school year, teachers are struggling to fit it all in and maximize retention!
Students are suffering due to a lack of time, resources, and many students aren’t getting the skills they need to be successful in higher grades.
It certainly feels like a lot of doom and gloom for a 6th-grade math class, but because of resources like ArgoPrep and Go Math! students are able to take charge of their education and understanding of mathematical principles.
The transition into middle school mathematics means that there will be fewer concepts taught, but that students will be required to interact with them and focus on them more. Coherence means that students will be asked to apply the knowledge they learn in math across all content areas. And finally, rigor will require students to be able to critically think about the concepts taught and apply them to various situations, correctly.
In fewer words, 6th grade is a challenging year for math. But it doesn’t need to be impossible or insurmountable for any student. While the stakes are higher, there are numerous study aids to support a child and their acquisition of math skills.
Where does this leave the parent of a child who is struggling with math?
Or the student who wants more of a challenge beyond the classroom. This is why resources such as ArgoPrep’s workbooks are crucial to the growth and development of your child in math.
Implementing ArgoPrep workbooks in the classroom provides a teacher with a conceptually sound curriculum with built-in support.
Using these workbooks will provide you valuable data through formative assessments, allowing you to pinpoint areas of concern without assigning 40 problems each night.
These workbooks are structured in a way to provide maximum impact with minimal work for the classroom teacher (because we know that you’re already busy enough!).
Implementing these workbooks in the classroom will provide your students with a consistent and predictable structure without sacrificing the quality of instruction.

Both Go Math Grade 6 and ArgoPrep Grade 6 follow similar formats for skill practice. Broken up into units and lessons, Go Math! Grade 6 units span over a few weeks.
The overview page explains the concepts of the unit and gives an example of how to solve the type of problem present in the lessons.
It provides a short vocabulary list with corresponding definitions. This information is delivered in both English on one side and Spanish on the other, making it accessible and usable by many parents.
ArgoPrep’s workbook is broken up into weeks, scaffolding the concepts as the weeks progress. A link to a video lesson accompanies each week, meaning that parents who are trying to help their kids have real-time, quick instruction through video whenever they need it!
Each video walks students through each problem, allowing for problem-specific questions to be answered and explained.
Each week also features a short, one-sentence summary of the skills being worked on that week. ArgoPrep workbooks also feature daily tips that explain a shortcut to allow students to understand the material more clearly and apply it more effectively as they progress.
Each book features a mix of standard problems and word problems, exposing students to a variety of mathematical equations.
Go Math Grade 6 features one page of “Extra Practice” at the end of the unit. ArgoPrep uses day five for an assessment and provides an extra day (day six) for a challenge question.
As previously mentioned, 6th grade is a big year in math. It can easily be described as more intense, but the fact is that students are learning more about critical thinking and processing (all valuable skills that we hope adults entering the real world will possess) and so, it is a crucial year for students to understand and apply what they’re learning in math class.
Listed below is a summary of the standard-aligned skills covered in ArgoPrep’s workbook and Go Math Grade 6. The skills and concepts focus primarily on algebraic expressions, complex multiplication and division, and basic graphing. Students will also learn about percentages and calculating volumes.
One of the most exciting features of ArgoPrep’s workbooks is the accessibility to specific videos for every week in the workbook. These videos walk students (and parents) through the mathematical processes for every single problem in the book.
These videos are accessible online and through the ArgoPrep app, making it accessible and functional for all students.
Opposed to having your child stay late after school for help with their teacher, hiring a tutor, and giving them additional support, ArgoPrep’s videos will help students understand the concepts more quickly.
ArgoPrep workbooks also include answer keys in the back of the book, an online portal with numerous features included with the purchase of the book, and assessments/extra practice to provide your child with the support that they need and crave!
Go Math! workbooks include assessments, tips, and various problems to meet common core standards and your child’s needs.
If your child is struggling with math, be sure to check out ArgoPrep’s award-winning online K-8 Math & ELA Program. An annual subscription is only $9.99 per month and the plan includes two free workbooks shipped to your home along with all of their online content!
If your child is seeking more challenges as it pertains to 6th-grade math, you will find that ArgoPrep’s content is written to challenge students through fewer problems with bigger impacts.
