This final lesson prior to our assessment focused on more challenging types of proportional relationships, including questions of the type that students might revisit on their tests later this week.
This problem involves unit rates and unit conversions...students need to understand that 2 hours and 15 minutes is 2 1/4 hours, and not 2.15 hours. This is a quick video I made to help students solve a problem from the study guide. We spent time looking at problems involving mark up, mark down, commissions, and fees. While many of these types of problems are percent problems, there are some problems that work as fraction problems.
In this lesson, we looked more closely at how proportional relationships can be expressed in tables. We looked at several problems in depth.
This lesson asked students to help remodel a bathroom floor, and then use uint rates to determine which car gets better gas mileage among other examples. We will continue to work on this skill for the next week.
This is the study guide to help prepare for the mid module assessment on proportional relationships. An answer key is posted below.
In this lesson, we practiced evaluating complex fractions--that is fractions that have fractions nested within them. Students divided fractions by fractions and used this knowledge to compute unit rates involving fractions.
This task asked students to look at different mixtures of yellow and blue paint, and determine which mixtures would create the same shade of purple paint. Students were asked to calculate the ratio of yellow to blue paint.
