Course Description

The Grade 6 Foundation Course is designed to provide students with a broad academic base across Mathematics, Science, and Logical Reasoning. The curriculum introduces students to essential mathematical concepts like number systems, algebra, geometry, data handling, and ratios while laying the groundwork for problem-solving and analytical thinking. In Science, students explore key ideas in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology, including matter and its properties, energy transformations, electricity, human anatomy, plant systems, and ecosystems. Logical Reasoning topics enhance their pattern recognition and critical thinking abilities. The course ensures a gradual progression from fundamental ideas to more structured applications, preparing students for advanced academic challenges.

Learning Objective

This course aims to develop computational fluency and logical reasoning by strengthening number sense, operations, and foundational algebraic skills. Students will gain the ability to visualize and solve geometrical problems and interpret statistical data meaningfully. In Science, the objective is to build an intuitive understanding of physical quantities, forces, energy, properties of matter, and the basics of life processes. Students will also develop the ability to approach real-world situations with scientific temper and critical analysis. Throughout the course, emphasis is placed on fostering curiosity, precision in scientific thought, and a structured approach to problem-solving, equipping students with skills essential for higher studies and competitive environments.

What Will I Learn?

Students will learn to work confidently with numbers, fractions, decimals, percentages, and basic algebra. They will understand shapes, areas, volumes, and angles in geometry, and develop data interpretation skills through statistics and logical reasoning. In science, they will explore the fundamentals of matter, atoms, mixtures, motion, energy, electricity, magnetism, and light. They will also study the basics of human body systems, nutrition, microorganisms, ecosystems, and environmental balance. Throughout the course, students will build strong analytical skills, scientific thinking, and a foundation for higher studies.
