Teacher:Mitchell
Dates:
Lesson and/or Unit Title: Equivalent Ratios and the Coordinate Plane
Stage 1 – Desired Results
Amount of Time: 94
 Common Core Standards: 6.RP.3Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems.
o 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.
Language Proficiency Level: 6th Grade
Student Learning Objective (s):
I can complete a table of equivalent ratios with whole number values
including measurements.
•I can create a function table and Compare proportional quantities.
•I can plot pairs of values on a coordinate plane
Lesson Outcome (s):
Students will create function tables to graph and illustrate ratio
relationships on the coordinate plane.
Essential Questions: (Checking for Understanding)
How can you use tables and graphs to understand ratios?
Key Vocabulary:
Equivalent ratios
Measurement
Function table
Plot
Coordinate plane
Stage 2 – Assessment Evidence
Performance Task: (created artifact…)
Notetaking
Completed Book Examples
Creating Function Tables and Illustration of relationships on the coordinate plane
Summative Task: (quizzes, tests, prompts)
Exit Ticket: Equivalent ratios Quiz
Stage 3 – Learning Plan
Anticipatory Set (10):
Bellringer:
Your neighbor pays you $17 for every 2 hours you work. You work 8 hours on Saturday, how much does your neighbor owe you?
Answer: $136
Input/Modeling/Crafting (25):
Equivalent ratios can be represented in multiple forms, including proportions, table of values, ordered pairs, and graphs. Equivalent ratios form a linear pattern
when graphed as ordered pairs in the coordinate plane..
Let’s have a look at this situation:
Suppose a train travels at a constant speed of 60 miles per hour. Write the speed as a ratio 60mi: 1hr, Now, estimate how long it would take the train to travel
320 miles.
Your answer should be about 4.5 hours.

Class, this lesson you will learn ways to quickly answer these types of questions involving ratios.
Now with your partner, Complete Exploration 1 on pg. 297-298.
Why is time represented by x and distance represented by y?
Answer distance traveled depends on the amount of time that passes
How can you tell from the graph that the rate of speed is constant?
The points form a line.
What do you think is true about every point on the graph?
For every point on the line, the train travels y miles in x hours.
Guided Practice (25): Students will complete Additional Practice on pg. 299.
Independent Practice (20): Complete pg. 300 Problem-Solving
Closure (14): Exit Ticket: Equivalent ratios Quiz
Alignment Extension (Homework): 4-Squares Practice: Division, Ratios, Rates, Unit rates
Differentiation Notes:
Students will be in mixed pairing based on Pretest results for graphing on the
coordinate plane. Those who showed mastery of the coordinate plane will be paired
with someone who hasn’t that those who have not can see and ask questions about
how to plot coordinates using the table.
