  1. Effective Math Instruction 6-8 December 18, 2012 “Teachers are thus free to provide students with whatever tools and knowledge their professional judgment and experience identify as most helpful for meeting the goals set out in the Standards.” ~ Introduction to the CCSS

  3. Agenda State Overview of scope and sequence and modules Tape Diagram Problems Grade Level Problems Assessment Problems (PARCC)

  4. Describe the overview of 6-8 math curriculum

  5. Structures in curriculum

  6. Math Modules

  7. Sequence of Modules

  8. Module Details

  9. Tape Diagram Problems Tape diagrams are best used to model ratios when the two quantities have the same units.

  10. Tape Diagrams: Q1 1. David and Jason have marbles in a ratio of 2:3. Together, they have a total of 35 marbles. How many marbles does each boy have?

  11. Tape Diagrams : Q2 2. The ratio of boys to girls in the class is 5:7. There are 36 children in the class. How many more girls than boys are there in the class?

  12. Tape Diagrams Q3: Comparing 3 items Lisa, Megan and Mary were paid $120 for babysitting in a ratio of 2: 3: 5. How much less did Lisa make than Mary?

  13. Tape Diagrams Q4: Different Ratios The ratio of Patrick’s M & M’s to Evan’s is 2: 1 and the ratio of Evan’s M & M’s to Michael’s is 4: 5. Find the ratio of Patrick’s M & M’s to Michael’s.

  14. Tape Diagrams Q5: Changing Ratios The ratio of Abby’s money to Daniel’s is 2: 9. Daniel has $45. If Daniel gives Abby $15, what will be the new ratio of Abby’s money to Daniel’s?

  15. Double Number Line Double number line diagrams are best used when the quantities have different units. Double number line diagrams can help make visible that there are many, even infinitely many, pairs of numbers in the same ratio—including those with rational number entries. As in tables, unit rates (R) appear in the pair (R, 1).

  16. Double Number Line:Finding average rate It took Megan 2 hours to complete 3 pages of math homework. Assuming she works at a constant rate, if she works for 8 hours, how many pages of math homework will she complete? What is the average rate at which she works?

  17. Identify properties of the RDW modeling technique for application problems • Read (2x) • Draw a model • Write an equation or number sentence • Write and answer statement • Unit • Object • Context

  18. Use RDW to solve Problem

  19. Modelling Challenge Salt Salt $6.60 3 parts = $6.60- $1.20 Sugar 3 parts = $5.40 1 part = $5.40 ÷ 3 = $1.80 $1.20+$1.80= $3.00 $1.20 2 boxes of salt and a box of sugar cost $6.60. A box of salt is $1.20 less than a box of sugar. What is the cost of a box of sugar?

  20. Challenging Problems Mika Said: “Four more girls jumped rope than played soccer.” Chaska Said: “For every girl that played soccer, two girls jumped rope.” Mr Hill Said: “Mika compared girls by looking at the difference and Chaska compared the girls using a ratio” • The students in Mr. Hill’s class played games at recess. • 6 boys played soccer • 4 girls played soccer • 2 boys jumped rope • 8 girls jumped rope • 1) Compare the number of boys who played soccer and jumped rope using the difference. Write your answer as a sentence as Mika did. • 2)Compare the number of boys who played soccer and jumped rope using a ratio. Write your answer as a sentence as Chaska did. • 3) Compare the number of girls who played soccer to the number of boys who played soccer using a ratio. Write your answer as a sentence as Chaska did.

  21. Challenging Problems and Compare these fractions: Which one is bigger than the other? Why?

  22. Grade Level Problems Using Grade level packets, explain the exemplar solution of problems.
