Ratio and Proportion

This Notebook presentation covers more than 7 lessons.

1. Simplifying a ratio
2. Interpreting a word problem as a ratio
3. Sharing in a ratio (2 parts)
4. Sharing in a ratio (3 parts)
5. Finding the total amount shared
6. Direct Proportion
7. Inverse Proportion

Each concept is introduced through direct instruction, focused practice and then a diagnostic question and/or a Craig Barton Venn diagram.
Answers are included in the presentation.
There are also active learning suggestions, including games and challenges.
The direct instruction slides follow my “Education Scotland friendly” adaptation of Craig Barton’s example problems pairs.
I have also included some of my own diagnostic questions in the presentation.
