Good to know

Traditional, skills-first practice based on California's pre-Common Core grade-level standards (math and English language arts, 1997; science and history-social science, 1998). Not affiliated with or endorsed by the California Department of Education. States set their own standards. Check yours.

This kit is supplemental practice, not a curriculum. It was made with AI assistance. Every answer in the key is computed and checked, and each science and true-facts page is checked against reference sources, listed after the answer key.

Some pages are shared with our other kits: 27 Grade 5 level pages also appear as the Super Smart pages of our Grade 3 Grade Kit, and 3 more (the multiplication chart, measurement facts and Mini Sudoku) appear in our Grade 3 and Grade 4 kits. The 24 Super Smart pages (Grade 7 level) also appear as regular pages in our Grade 7 Grade Kit. The multiplication chart, the fractions, decimals and percents chart and the divisibility and primes chart also appear in our Grade 6 kit, and the fractions, decimals and percents chart in our Grade 7 kit too. If you own those kits, you already have them.

Print on US Letter paper in black ink. Print the cut-out pages (the Percent Match cards) on one side only, on heavier paper if you have it.
