Activity 1: What is UDL?

Universal Design for Learningis a set of principles for curriculum development that give all individuals equal opportunities to learn.

UDL provides a blueprint for creating instructional goals, methods, materials, and assessments that work for everyone--not a single, one-size-fits-all solution but rather flexible approaches that can be customized and adjusted for individual needs.

What is a tape diagram?

6.RP.3 Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations.

Activity 2: Mini-Lesson

A drawing that looks like a segment of tape, used to illustrate number relationships. Also known as a strip diagram, bar model, fraction strip, or length model. (CCSS Glossary)

Tape Diagrams

6.RP.1 Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities.

Write any ratio that you can see depicted in the tape diagram below.

Tape Diagrams

How could a tape diagram be used to solve the problem: 3 out of 5 students in Mr. Barnes’ class prefer chocolate ice cream. If there are 30 students in the class, how many prefer chocolate ice cream?

Tape Diagrams

How could a tape diagram be used to solve the problem: 5 out of 8 students at a nearby private school are female. If there are 100 females enrolled, how many total students are enrolled at the school?

Tape Diagrams

How could a tape diagram be used to solve the problem: The number of books in the school library was increased by 20% to 180 books. Find the number of books before the increase.

Revisiting the Essentials

Begin to examine the available curricular resources.

Unit 1 (Ratios & Proportional Relationships) is expected to take about 20 days.

With your table partners, begin to think about what your first few weeks of class will look like.

◦ What tasks/lessons will you use?◦ How will you pre-assess students for

background knowledge?
