CAPS · Grade 6
Grade 6 homework help, in line with CAPS
Grade 6 is in the Intermediate Phase (Grades 4 to 6). The work gets bigger: more subjects, projects, longer reading and the first real tests. Slimkop helps your child plan, check and explain their own work, one step at a time.
Slimkop never gives the answer. It asks the question that helps your child work it out, and a right answer only counts once they can explain it.

- Help with homework and projects in every subject, step by step. Slimkop never gives the answer: your child works it out.

How Slimkop helps a Grade 6 learner
An example Grade 6 Maths lesson. The child gives every answer; Slimkop asks the next question.
- SlimkopLet's try one. What is 25% of 80?
- Child25
- SlimkopNot quite: 25% isn't 25 things. Percent means 'out of 100'. So 25% is 25/100. Can you simplify 25/100?
- Child1/4
- SlimkopExactly, 25% is a quarter. So what is a quarter of 80?
- Child20
- SlimkopYes! 20. You turned 25% into a quarter and shared 80 into 4 groups. 50% is a half and 10% is a tenth: try those next.
