Week 15

(Module 2 Topic 1 Lesson 3 - 4: Equivalent Ratios)

Learning objective = Students use multiple strategies to determine the relationship between two quantities: drawing models, building tape diagrams, completing tables, scaling up and down with proportions, and constructing double number lines. They use these strategies to write equivalent ratios, convert between measurements, and solve real-world problems.

Parents can support learning at home by helping students connect this week’s lesson to real-life examples and practice explaining their thinking. Encourage your child to explain each step aloud rather than simply memorize a rule = SAMPLE TEST QUESTIONS + MORE QUESTIONS

***If your child needs more challenge, they can move at a faster pace by using this site to study the concepts of future lessons. Mr. Pierre will strive to prepare lessons two weeks ahead of the current week. Also, Khan Academy is a great enrichment resource***

I <3 Math: Percent as a Rate | Grades 3-5, 6-8 The Ratio Concept and Ratio Language (Grade 6) Teaching and Lesson ResourcesA presentation of multistep ratio and percent problems to illustrate the concept of percent as a rate. This I <3 Math episode uses real-world comparisons to convert rates into equivalent percentages.

Real-Life Math | Physical Trainer | Grades 6-8 Measuring, Estimating, and Solving With Mass (Grade 3) Teaching and Lesson ResourcesThe general manager of a fitness center explains how numerical calculations, percentages, and ratios are critical to his job in this video from KAET. In the accompanying classroom activity, students explore percentages, fractions, and decimals as they measure and calculate their own target heart rates.

Recipes and Defining Equivalent Ratios | Grades 6-8 The Ratio Concept and Ratio Language (Grade 6) Teaching and Lesson ResourcesIn this video lesson, students see that scaling a recipe up (or down) requires multiplying the amount of each ingredient by the same factor, e.g., doubling a recipe means doubling the amount of each ingredient (MP7). They also gain more experience using a discrete diagram as a tool to represent a situation. Additionally, they work with equivalent ratios more abstractly, both in the context of recipes and in the context of abstract ratios of numbers. They understand and articulate that all ratios that are equivalent to a : b can be generated by multiplying both a and b by the same number (MP6). By connecting concrete quantitative experiences to abstract representations that are independent of a context, students develop their skills in reasoning abstractly and quantitatively (MP2). They continue to use diagrams, words, or a combination of both for their explanations. Grade 6, Episode 1: Unit 2, Lessons 3 & 5 | Illustrative Math
