NEW UNIT: RATIOS & PROPORTIONS

I was very proud of my students on Friday, on their own they determined the meaning of a ratio. They shared their own examples and drew from their own knowledge and experiences. We read a quick story about sailors needing to put 10 fish in to 2 barrels.

THINKIN THURSDAY

Today we are going to be doing what I call a walking worksheet. Each desk has a problem attached to it. Students will have a limited time to work each problem. What they don't finish will be homework. All of these problems are covering previously taught skills. Part of this assignment will count as an assessment for some skills we have covered. Pictures coming soon.
