Standards for Mathematical Content Clusters Addressed [m] 6.RP.A Understand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems. Transfer Goals Students will be able to independently use their learning to Make sense of never-before-seen problems and persevere in solving them. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. Making Meaning UNDERSTANDINGS Students will understand that Ratio concepts and ratio reasoning are used to solve real-world problems. When two quantities are related proportionally, the ratio of one quantity to the other is constant as the numerical values of both quantities change by the same factor. Ratios and rates can be represented visually. KNOWLEDGE Students will know The definition of academic vocabulary words, such as ratio, rate, unit rate, ratio tables, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, percent, unit analysis, and conversion factor. A ratio is a comparison of two quantities. A rate is a specific kind of ratio that compares two quantities that have different units. A unit rate refers to the numerical part of the rate. The word unit is used to highlight the 1 in per 1 unit of the second quantity. A percent represents a rate per 100. Common percent equivalencies, such as 50% is ½, 100% is 1, 150% is 1 ½, and 200% is 2. Common conversion factors, such as 12 in. = 1 ft., 1 gallon = 4 quarts, and 1 m = 100 cm. ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS Students will keep considering How are ratios and rates different? How do you use ratios and rates to solve real world problems? How do ratios relate to percents? Acquisition SKILLS Students will be skilled at and/or be able to Use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship. Compute unit rates, including ratios of fractions. Reason with ratios and rates using tape diagrams, double number lines, ratio tables, and graphing in the coordinate plane. Find the whole, given a part and the percent. Find a percent of a quantity as a rate per 100. Use ratio reasoning to convert measurement units. LONG BEACH UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT 1 Posted 6/23/17
Assessed Grade Level Standards Standards for Mathematical Practice SMP 1 Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. SMP 2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively. SMP 3 Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. SMP 4 Model with mathematics. SMP 5 Use appropriate tools strategically. SMP 6 Attend to precision. SMP 7 Look for and make use of structure. SMP 8 Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. Standards for Mathematical Content [m] 6.RP.A Understand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems. 6.RP.1 Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities. For example, The ratio of wings to beaks in the bird house at the zoo was 2:1, because for every 2 wings there was 1 beak. For every vote candidate A received, candidate C received nearly three votes. 6.RP.2 Understand the concept of a unit rate a/b associated with a ratio a:b with b 0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship. For example, This recipe has a ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar, so there is 3/4 cup of flour for each cup of sugar. We paid $75 for 15 hamburgers, which is a rate of $5 per hamburger. 6.RP.3 Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations. a. Make tables of equivalent ratios relating quantities with whole number measurements, find missing values in the tables, and plot the pairs of values on the coordinate plane. Use tables to compare ratios. b. Solve unit rate problems including those involving unit pricing and constant speed. For example, if it took 7 hours to mow 4 lawns, then at that rate, how many lawns could be mowed in 35 hours? At what rate were lawns being mowed? c. Find a percent of a quantity as a rate per 100 (e.g., 30% of a quantity means 30/100 times the quantity); solve problems involving finding the whole, given a part and the percent. d. Use ratio reasoning to convert measurement units; manipulate and transform units appropriately when multiplying or dividing quantities.
