Lesson Plan: 6.RP.A.2 Unit Rate (This lesson should be adapted, including instructional time, to meet the needs of your students.) Background InformationContent/Grade LevelRatios and Proportional Relationships/Grade 6Unit/ClusterUnderstand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems.Lesson TopicUsing ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems.Essential Questions & Enduring Understandings Addressed in the LessonEssential QuestionsHow are rates and unit rates used in the real world?How is a unit rate similar to and different from a ratio?Enduring UnderstandingsA unit rate is a special ratio with a denominator of one that compares different types of measures.FOCUS6.RP.A.2: Understand the concept of a unit rate ab associated with a ratio a:b with b ≠ 0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship. (Major Standard)It is critical that the Standards for Mathematical Practices are incorporated in ALL lesson activities throughout the unit as appropriate. It is not the expectation that all eight Mathematical Practices will be evident in every lesson. The Standards for Mathematical Practices make an excellent framework on which to plan your instruction. Look for the infusion of the Mathematical Practices throughout this unit.COHERENCEAcross-Grade Coherence: Content Knowledge from Earlier Grades4.NF.A.1: Explain why a fraction ab is equivalent to a fraction (n × a)(n × b) by using visual fraction models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate equivalent fractions.5.NF.B.4: Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication to multiply a fraction or whole number by a fraction.Within-Grade Coherence: Content from Other Standards in the Same Grade that Provide Reinforcement6.RP.A.1: Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities.RIGORProcedural SkillAs students have the opportunity to practice multiplication and division of whole numbers, fractions and decimals while working real world problems. Conceptual UnderstandingStudents have the opportunity to develop for themselves the meaning of ratio, rate and unit rate by using their skills to solve real world problems. Modeling/ApplicationStudents have the opportunity to work with models their thinking about ratios as they work real world problems using equations.Student OutcomesStudents will be able to determine a unit rate given a ratio.Students will solve real-world mathematical problems by finding unit rates.Learning ExperienceComponentDetailsWhich Standards for Mathematical Practice(s) does this address? How is the Practice used to help students develop proficiency?Method for determining student readiness for the lessonIn the warm up, students will explain what a ratio is and how the parts of the ratio relate to one another. Teachers will determine how in depth they need to review based upon the student responses.Ask: What is a ratio? Have students talk to a partner and share thinking. A ratio is a comparison between two numbers of the same kind (e.g., objects, persons, students, spoonfuls, units of whatever identical dimension), usually expressed as "a to b" or a:b, sometimes expressed arithmetically as a quotient of the two ab. The comparison between two measures, expressed as the number of times one is bigger or smaller than the other.Teachers will select a few students to share responses. Explain that in prior lesson(s), they learned about comparing same types of measures (part/part and part/whole ratios). Show students one of the graphics (or a different one that you think would be of special interest to your own students). Ask them to identify as many part/part and part/whole ratios as they can by grouping and comparing objects in the graphic presented to them. Graphic AGraphic BGraphic CMotivation/Warm UpAsk: What are some examples of ratios in the lives of your students?In pairs, have students record responses on sticky notes, and post them on a white board/chalk board/ wall/door/etc. After Activity 1, students will revisit their sticky notes to classify as part/part, part/whole, or unit rate. Activity 1 UDL ComponentsMultiple Means of RepresentationMultiple Means for Action and ExpressionMultiple Means for EngagementKey QuestionsFormative AssessmentSummaryUDL Components:Principle I: Representation is present in the activity. Prior knowledge is activated about ratio as they sort their cards. Students have a chance to use mathematical vocabulary as they work in groups.Principle II: Expression is present in the activity.The students begin by working in groups and sorting cards of ratios and rates. Scaffolding is gradually released as they work through their sorting.Principle III: Engagement is present in the activityThis task allows for activity participation as they explore the meaning of ratio and rate. It allows time for evaluation of their work.Ratio/Rate Cards Sort – Put students in groups of two or three. Ask students to sort cards (Attachment #1) into categories (do not give them any guidance, such as titles, amount of categories, etc.)(SMP#1)Have students explain their categorization. Is there evidence of knowledge of part-part, part-whole, and “other”?(SMP#3)Discuss this chart:Reference: Adapted from Van de Walle, Teaching Student Centered Mathematics, grades 5-8, volume 3, pg. 155Ask:Would you change the arrangement of your card sort given this new information? Why or why not?What do you notice about the rate cards? Possible answer: They use different types of measures.What other real life examples of rates can you give?(SMP#6) Invite student volunteers to explain the definition of unit rate, and guide student responses into a broader discussion: A unit rate represents a rate with a denominator of 1 in fraction form. Rates are usually expressed in per unit form. Examples include: miles per hour, pizza slices per person, inches per foot, heartbeats per minute, cost per pound, etc. Return to the card sort. Which rate cards are rates and which are unit rates? Review your original sticky notes and classify (or re-classify, if necessary) students’ authentic life examples. (SMPs #1, #3, #6)Make sense of types of ratios by planning a solution pathway instead of jumping to a solution while sorting cards into categories and explain their reasoning. (SMP#1)The students can construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others by justifying conclusions as they sort the cards.(SMP# 3)Attend to precision is done in this activity as the students communicate with others and try to use clear mathematical language when discussing their reasoning. .(SMP#6) Activity 2UDL ComponentsMultiple Means of RepresentationMultiple Means for Action and ExpressionMultiple Means for EngagementKey QuestionsFormative AssessmentSummaryUDL Components:Principle I: Representation is present in the activity. Students will use this activity as an opportunity to access prior skill from earlier grades and practice with a new idea for finding unit rates.Principle II: Expression is present in the activity.The gallery walk allows students movement as they solve the problems around the room.Principle III: Engagement is present in the activityThe gallery walk fosters discussion, collaboration and community in order to compare their prices.Finding the unit rate using equivalent ratios.Show two examples: Example #1: 15 hamburgers for $75. How much per hamburger? (Note to teacher: Make sure students are solving using equivalent ratios.)$7515 = x1 $75 ÷15 15÷15 = $51What is the unit rate?Answer: $5 per hamburgerExample #2: Four movie tickets cost $52. How much does it cost for each ticket?$524 = x1 $52 ÷44÷4 = $131What is the unit rate?Answer: $13 per movie ticket(SMP#4)Use this video to show an example of comparing prices. math/dataanalysis/comparingprices/Which is the better buy? (Rate application)Compare the prices for various sizes of popcorn sold at the local movie theater. Mega Bag $10.24 for 32 oz.Giant Bag $6.00 for 24 oz.Medium Bag $4.48 for 16 oz.Kid’s Bag $2.40 for 8 oz.What is the unit price per ounce for each bag of popcorn? Show your equivalent ratios.10.2432 = ?1 10.24 3232 32 = .3216.0024 = ?1 6.00 2424 24 = .2514.4816 = ?1 4.48 1616 16 = .281 2.408 =?1 2.40 88 8 = .301What size popcorn is the best buy? Explain your reasoning. Answer: The giant bag the best buy because it cost less than the other three kinds.(SMP#4)Have the students work in two’s and try the eight problems posted around the room (Attachment #2). Have students go to at least 4 problems to find the unit rate or best buy. Provide a capture sheet for each student (Attachment #3).(SMP# 1, #6)Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them on the gallery walk as they monitor their own progress and change their approach if necessary.(SMP#1)The students model with mathematics as they apply the mathematics they know to solve everyday problems.(SMP# 4)The students are attending to precision as they communicate precisely with others on the gallery walk.(SMP# 6)ClosureStudents will need to determine which scenario is correct and justify their reasoning. Put 2 pictures of grocery ads of two brands of the same thing side by side on the document camera. Have the students individually determine which brand is the better buy.
