Questions teachers ask

Is this the real PAT?
No. It is practice in the format of the Grade 6 Mathematics Provincial Achievement Test, built to the blueprint in Alberta Education and Childcare's 2025–2026 subject bulletin. Official practice tests are on Alberta's digital assessment platform.
Can students use a calculator?
No. Neither part of the Grade 6 math PAT allows a calculator. Students may use manipulatives such as a ruler, a protractor or counters, and a 12 × 12 multiplication table is an allowed accommodation.
What does Part B cover?
Every organizing idea of Grade 6: number (integers, decimals and powers; fractions, rates and ratios), algebra and patterns, geometry and coordinate geometry, and measurement and statistics.
