I will do the daily math meetings to teach concepts, these videos are to reinforce concepts or if you are unable to attend the meeting. Practice will be done in Khan Academy and students are expected to do the practices until a 100% has been achieved. Khan Academy does have instant feedback with supports to help students who are struggling.
ST Math has been approved for our grade level to use. This program has kids work at a manipulative level to understand concepts better. Students should do at least 20 minutes of ST Math practice a day. The rate at which they pass of concepts is up to how persistent they are. In this program, it is important to watch how objects are manipulated in order to understand the concept. I have found that kids who successfully go through the ST math program have a deeper understanding of concepts that are taught.

6.RP.1 Ratios
Students will be able to understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities. The following are examples of ratio language: “The ratio of wings to beaks in the bird house at the zoo was 2:1, because for every 2 wings there was 1 beak.” “For every vote candidate A received, candidate C received nearly three votes.”

For this assessment, you need to complete the Equivalent Ratios in the Real world practice on Khan Academy

6.RP.2 Rates
Students will be able to understand the concept of a unit rate a/b associated with a ratio a:b with b ≠ 0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship. The following are examples of rate language: "This recipe has a ratio of four cups of flour to two cups of sugar, so the rate is two cups of flour for each cup of sugar." “We paid $75 for 15 hamburgers, which is a rate of $5 per hamburger." (In sixth grade, unit rates are limited to non-complex fractions.)

6.RP.3 Using Ratio and Rate Reasoning
Students will be able to Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world (with a context) and mathematical (void of context) problems, using strategies such as reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations involving unit rate problems.
a. Make tables of equivalent ratios relating quantities with whole-number measurements, find missing values in the tables, and plot the pairs of values on the coordinate plane. Use tables to compare ratios.
b. Solve unit rate problems including those involving unit pricing and constant speed. For example, if it took four hours to mow eight lawns, how many lawns could be mowed in 32 hours? What is the hourly rate at which lawns were being mowed?
c. Find a percent of a quantity as a rate per 100. Solve problems involving finding the whole, given a part and the percent. (For example, 30% of a quantity means 30/100 times the quantity.)
d. Use ratio reasoning to convert measurement units; manipulate and transform units appropriately when multiplying or dividing quantities.

For this assessment, I have included an example of what you are doing. You need to create a story problem from your life and set up a ratio. Create a table for the data with at least 3 ratios. Then create a line graph of the data. You may do this by hand or use google sheets to create. Then email to me.

For this activity, I have included the blank copy and the finished copy that I did. You will need to write at least 6 of your characteristics, then assign a value to each characteristic so that they add up to be 100. Next, use the circles around the large circle to document your data percentages. Then draw a line from the edge of each group of circles to the center and color code.
