Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Match/identify a simple ratio (1: X) to the relationship between two quantities.
  • Given a situation, use objects or calculate to set up a ratio.
Representation:
  • Recognize the meaning of the placement of numbers in a ratio for a given situation.
  • Show a ratio in three ways: number to number (1 to 2) expressed as a fraction (1/2) or using a colon 1:2.
  • Represent the ratio of objects (e.g., red hats) to the total number of objects (red and green hats), part-to-whole.
  • Represent the ratio of the number of one object (red hats) to the number of other objects (green hats) from a set of objects (red and green hats), part-to-part.
  • Understand the following concepts and vocabulary: ratio, rate, proportion, prices, portions per person.

Category: Access Points
Date Adopted or Revised: 06/14
Cluster: Understand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems. (Major Cluster) : 

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
