Is there one right way to control infectious diseases? Learners determine the facts each stakeholder must consider when making their recommendations for controlling a disease threatening their area. They take into account public health,...

And the beat goes on. The installment of the Math at the Core: Ratios series introduces time signatures in music. A musician shows the relationship between different types of musical beats. Working in pairs, classmates create beat...

Use unit rates to find the number of parts needed to produce a given number of units. A production scheduler shares the different ways schedulers use math to ensure the required amount of parts are available to manufacture air...

The star of the show is ratios. The informative resource explains how to transpose music using ratios. Individuals transpose the song "Twinkle, Twinkle" in the activity by applying their ratio skills. The activity challenges class...

Equivalent ratios show up on tape. Young mathematicians use tape diagrams to create equivalent ratios in the initial lesson on the topic. They learn the definition of equivalent ratios and use it to build others in the third segment of a...

Pupils continue the study of ratios by creating ratios from a context. The contexts present more than two quantities, and scholars create contexts that match given ratios. 

Ratios may not be created equal, but they are equivalent. Pupils learn the theorem relating equivalent ratios and equal values in the eighth segment in a series of 29. Classmates use the theorem to determine whether ratios within...

What is the connection between equivalent ratios? Class members first find the multiplication factor used to create equivalent ratios. Next, they take that information to determine whether ratios are equivalent. The second lesson on...

Using the concept of a candy vending machine, young mathematicians explore the sugar ratios found in different types of candy. Using the provided information, class members calculate and compare different ratios in...

Keep track of your sixth graders' mastery of the Common Core math standards with this practice assessment. Taking a different approach than most standardized tests, this resource includes not only multiple choice questions, but also...

Add some holiday cheer to your math lessons with this problem-solving worksheet. From problems comparing the number of ears and legs of Santa's reindeer, to finding the ratio of colored lights on a Christmas tree, a...

Zoe is reading books over vacation and wants to know at her current rate, how many will she finish by the end. Building on prior knowledge of fractions and ratios, young mathematicians learn how equivalent rates are used to answer her...

While examining fractions and ratios, your leaners get to read about one of their favorite subjects: candy! There are four word problems on this worksheet. Learners consider situations in which "for every x caramels there are y...

Challenge your eggheads with this task! They write ratios of good, rotten, and broken eggs. Then they write ratios for different-colored marbles. A straightforward assignment that provides needed practice when first learning ratio format.

Learners explore reflections on a coordinate plane in this lesson. They trace their hand on a grid, determine the coordinates of each point, and create a scatter plot of their points. Pupils use this information to investigate aspect...
