Students began working with Ratio Tables today in class. Ratio Tables are a more effective way to generate equivalent ratios as they allow the student to move between ratios more fluidly.

Here are our notes from today’s class. Students glued these notes into their math notebook:

The biggest take-away from today’s lesson was this: if you can “see” or “recognize” a direct relationship from the given ratio to the ratio you want to find, then make that direct relationship (“showing the relationship”) and then applying that same relationship to the other part of the ratio.

No homework tonight! Just want to let this sit in the brain and let it sink in!

We have a gold test on Inequalities coming up this Friday, Feb 22nd! We have been reviewing these skills during PowerUps so everyone should be refreshed on these skills:

• determining a good solution to an inequality
• writing an inequality
• graphing an inequality with open or closed circles

Enjoy your evening!
