11/14-11/18

Monday:

Today in class we finished lesson 2.11: I can use pictures to model and solve problems using equivalent ratios.

SMP: 2, 4 & 6

• We went over Math Boxes p. 94
• We talked about "similar" and how to categorize "similar rectangles"
• We worked in the Math Journal on pages 92-93 (We discussed how the rectangle activity relates to equivalent ratios)

Homework Tonight:

• Home Link 2.11

Tuesday:

Today in class we began working on lesson 2.12: The Blueberry Blast Problem: I can representations to compare ratios and find equivalent ratios. I can use these comparisons to write a ratio based on the information given.

SMP: 1

• We went over Home Link 2.11
• We reviewed solving equivalent ratios with e solving ratio worksheet
• We worked in Math Journal p. 95 to introduce how to solve the Blueberry Blast Problem.
• The Blueberry Blast Problem was introduced. (rough draft, due Thursday; final draft, due Friday)

Homework Tonight:

• Math Boxes p. 96
• Rough Draft of Blueberry Blast Problem due Thursday!

Wednesday:

Today in class we continued working on Lesson 2.12: The Blueberry Blast Problem: I can representations to compare ratios and find equivalent ratios. I can use these comparisons to write a ratio based on the information given.

SMP: 1

• We went over Math Boxes p. 96
• We went over the problems for the Blueberry Blast Problem
• We had time to work on the Blueberry Blast Problem, independently
• We had time to ask questions about the problem

Homework Tonight

• Rough Draft of the Blueberry Blast Problem is due tomorrow
• Final Draft of the Blueberry Blast Problem is due Friday

Thursday:

Today in class we spend some more time on Lesson 2.12: The Blueberry Blast Problem: I can representations to compare ratios and find equivalent ratios. I can use these comparisons to write a ratio based on the information given.

SMP: 1

• We went over our answers to the Blueberry Blast Problem with our tables
• We went over the grading rubric for the assignment
• We went over any questions we had about the problems, using student work from class
• We saw an example student work that meets expectations for the assignment
• We got a "new" sheet for the Blueberry Blast problem for our homework tonight
