Free 6th grade math games and practice

On screen this path is called Level 8, so a child never has to think about which grade they are "supposed" to be in. A part is finished by ten right answers; a wrong one makes the next problem a little easier and never costs anything.

The lesson parts in 6th grade math

The first 24 of 134 parts, in the order Peabody lists them:

1. Area of a rectangle: Square units inside a rectangle
2. Parallelogram area: Base times height
3. Parallelogram: find a side: Work backward from the area
4. Triangle area: Half of a parallelogram
5. Triangles, any shape: Tall, leaning, and missing sides
6. Cut a shape apart: Rectangles added or taken away
7. Trapezoids and houses: Mix rectangles and triangles
8. Shapes on a grid: Count squares and halves
9. Polygons from corners: Cut the polygon into easy pieces
10. Cube nets: Does it fold into a cube?
11. Nets and faces: Which solid? How many faces?
12. Faces, edges, corners: Count faces, edges and vertices
13. Surface area of a box: Add up every face
14. Prisms and pyramids: Triangles and rectangles in one net
15. Wrapping and painting: Which faces get covered?
16. Walls, doors and cans: Leave parts out, then round up
17. Cubes with ½ edges: Small cubes in a unit cube
18. Volume by counting cubes: Number of cubes times each cube
19. Volume with fractions: Length × width × height
20. Fraction edges, harder: More fractions, or a missing edge
21. Ratio language: Say a ratio as a : b and as for every
22. Equivalent ratios: Multiply both numbers by the same amount
23. Missing numbers in a ratio: Scale up, scale down, or go through 1 part
24. Ratio tables: Every row is the same ratio

…and 110 more parts in the full path.

What practice starts on

Beside the lessons, the practice brain brings facts back on a schedule. For a 6th grade child it works on multi-digit arithmetic, fractions, decimals and percents, negative numbers and algebra, times tables and division facts. The whole math ladder, lowest rung first, is counting, making ten, adding, taking away, number sense, times tables, division, big numbers, fractions, decimals and negatives and algebra; a child starts on the rung their grade puts them on and moves up when answers are solid, so a child who is ahead is not held back and a question answered right is done for good.

Free games that ask 6th grade math

Every answer is three big boxes to tap, with no typing, and a wrong answer costs a little time, never a life. The arcade also has two action games with cartoon violence, Sniper and Doomcrawl. We leave them off these lists on purpose; every game is on the games page.

Questions parents ask

What does Peabody's 6th grade math cover?

134 lesson parts across area and surface area, ratios, rates and percents, dividing fractions, common denominators, arithmetic in base ten, expressions and equations, negative numbers, number line and coordinate plane, rational numbers and data sets and distributions, from area of a rectangle to mean or median?. They are short, they are made and marked by code, and they are not matched to state standards.

Does my child have to do the parts in order?

No. Every part is open. The first one not yet finished is marked "Up next" as a suggestion, so a child can go to whatever the class is doing this week.

Is it free?

Yes, free through the end of 2026, with no sign-up. Peabody has no written work, no standards report and no test, so it is practice, not a full curriculum.
