This document provides an overview of unit 2 which focuses on rate, ratio and proportional reasoning using equivalent fractions. It lists essential questions that will be addressed, such as how ratios demonstrate relationships and how to solve problems using ratios. Suggested resources and materials are provided, such as double number lines and ratio tables. The GSE standards covered in this unit are listed, including understanding ratios and using rate language. Enduring understandings are that students will gain proportional reasoning skills through instruction and practice and develop an understanding of ratios as comparisons. Prerequisite skills like multiples and factors are also noted. Key vocabulary terms are defined, such as rate, ratio and percent.

Unit 2
Rate, Ratio and Proportional Reasoning Using Equivalent Fractions
Essential Questions How does ratio demonstrate the relationship between two quantities? How does ratio and proportion help to solve real world problems? What kinds of problems can I solve by using ratios? How can I tell if a relationship is multiplicative? What is the difference between a multiplicative and an additive relationship? What are equivalent ratios? Can I give examples of equivalent ratios? What are rates? What are some examples of unit rates? How are ratios and rates similar and different? Can I give examples? What are percentages? What information do I get when I compare two numbers using a Suggested Resources and Materials www.georgiastandards.org 100 grids (10 x 10) for modeling percents Bar Models for example, 4 red bars to 6 blue bars as a visual representation of a ratio and then expand the number of bars to show other equivalent ratios Double Number Lines Ratio tables to use for proportional reasoning
GSE Standards Addressed:
MGSE6.RP.1 Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities. MGSE6.RP.2 Understand the concept of a unit rate a / b associated with a ratio a:b with b 0 (b not equal to zero), and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship. MGSE6.RP.3 Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve realworld and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations. MGSE6.RP.3a Make tables of equivalent ratios relating quantities with wholenumber measurements, find missing values in the tables, and plot the pairs of values on the coordinate plane. Use tables to compare ratios. MGSE6.RP.3b Solve unit rate problems including those involving unit pricing and constant speed. MGSE6.RP.3c 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 Enduring Understandings Students will gain a deeper understanding of proportional reasoning through instruction and practice will develop and use multiplicative thinking develop a sense of proportional reasoning develop the understanding that ratio is a comparison of two numbers or quantities find percents using the same processes for solving rates and proportions solve real-life problems involving measurement units that need to be converted Prerequisite Skills
