Description
6th grade math guided notes/reference sheets for exponents, volume, order of operations, algebraic expressions and equations, inequalities, surface area (and more) are more engaging with the math wheel format!
What is a math wheel? It's a type of graphic organizer where students:
- Take notes inside the math wheel
- Use color, drawing, and doodling to help create memory triggers
- Complete practice problems in the pattern around the wheel, and
- Color the background pattern, if desired
Students can keep these graphic organizers in their interactive notebooks all year as a mini anchor charts/reference sheets/study tools.
- The wheels are excellent for reviewing concepts as part of your test prep and are great as intervention tools (blog post about math wheels for interventions here).
You can even enlarge the math wheels and use them as posters or anchor charts!
This 6th grade math wheel bundle covers 10 topics
- A second 6th Grade Math Wheel Set includes 10 other topics
- The complete 6th Grade Math Wheel Bundle includes 24 wheels (at a greater discount)
Each math wheel file includes:
1) Student math wheel(s): THREE versions:
- ‘Open’ for students to write notes - this version is most flexible, for you to add the notes you'd like
- ‘Fill-in’ notes, which help control use of space
- Pre-filled notes for absentees or students who need this option
⭐️Each wheel also comes with 2 formats for each version ~ with a patterned background and without (except for coordinate plane b/c the coordinate plane IS the background.)
2) Key with suggested notes
3) Colored sample
4) PowerPoint file with two or more editable templates ~ you can create your own wheels, if you'd like (for classroom use only; not commercial use)
The 10 math wheels address the following 6th grade math topics:
*(2) denotes 2 wheels for that topic:
- Algebraic expressions (parts of and evaluating)
- Coordinate plane
- Equivalent expressions
- Exponents
- Graphing Inequalities
- One-step algebraic equations
- One-step inequalities
- Order of Operations (2)
- Surface area
- Volume
Features of these easy-to-use 6th grade math resources:
- Notes sections & examples
- Guided or independent practice in the pattern around the circle
- Creative but Structured Format: While math wheels are visually engaging and some may have a lot of content, each one is carefully organized into clear sections. This chunked layout helps students process information step-by-step without feeling overwhelmed.
- Coloring/doodling opportunity: students can color the background pattern, as well as the headings and doodle arrows, making the concepts a bit more memorable
- Note about coloring the background (if you use the patterned versions): Coloring the background pattern is just a chance to add some mindfulness to math class. This does not need to be part of the lesson but could be for 'fast finisher' time. Students could also add other notes in the background or color creatively with patterns or outline the shapes, etc.

- 4th Grade Math Wheel Bundle
- 5th Grade Math Wheel Bundle
- 7th Grade Math Wheel Bundle or the
- COMPLETE 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th Grade Math Wheel Bundle: this bundle includes other wheels as well, like Meet the Mathematician, Class Expectations, Problem Solving wheels and more
What teachers are saying about 6th grade math wheels:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"I used this product to teach lessons. My students loved the wheel notes and so do I! I think it is such a creative and different way to take guided notes."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"My students absolutely love using the wheel as notes. It makes it easy for them to find the information when they need it and they can kind of doodle as a writing so they don’t get bored."
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"I love these math wheels!! I love using guided notes and these are fun and easy to use. The kids really like them and actually use them and refer back to them. Totally worth the money and a time saver!"
