Describe in detail what you need | Provide me with a lesson plan that includes a do now, mini lesson, practice, and exit ticket on the following: students work in pairs to create their own problem-solving scenarios, using different types of proportional relationships. Formative assessment: partnered problem-solving activity |
How many pages | 1 |
Students will be able to create and solve different types of proportional relationships through problem-solving scenarios.
On the board, write the following question:
Sofia ran 7 miles in 30 minutes. At the same speed, how many miles can she run in 1 hour and 30 minutes?
Have the students work independently on the question and then share their answers with others sitting next to them.
Explain what proportional relationships are and provide examples.
There are three types of proportional relationships:
Explain each type of proportional relationship with examples.
Explain to the students that they will work in pairs to create and solve their own problem-solving scenarios using different types of proportional relationships. Each example should include a problem that displays a proportional relationship and one of the three types of proportional relationships described in the lesson.
Distribute the Partnered Problem-Solving Activity worksheet. The students will work in pairs to create and solve their own problem-solving scenarios. Circulate the room, providing help as needed.
Distribute the Homework worksheet that includes three proportional relationship problems. Before leaving class, have the students solve one of the problems independently and hand it in.
Partnered problem-solving activity will be the formative assessment for this lesson.
Challenge the students to create two additional problem-solving scenarios using the proportional relationships they learned in class. Have the students practice solving these problems independently at home.
