Half of the American adults are not considered proportionate thinkers, making this a concept that is hard for some grasp (Van de Walle 357).

Proportionate reasoning goes beyond just setting fractions equal to each other, and is more a method of reasoning about manipulative situations, and encourages students to use a unifying thinking to draw conclusions and make connections between concepts using higher thinking.
Proportional reasoning is the explanation as to why two objects or compared or equivalent based on a scale. ]]> 2018-04-09 17:51:18 UTC https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/249955869 amsaldan https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/249964795 Many students struggle with pacing the correct values in correct places.

How great does it feel when your students get to use math in real life]]> 2018-04-09 18:12:00 UTC https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/249969857 amsaldan https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/249984532 Students should be able to compare situations and determine if relationship is additive, multiplicative, or constant. Determining what kind of relationship is present is essential to indentifying whether the situation is proportional or non proportional.

Additive Relationship:
Two quantities can be expressed as related to each other through addition. y=x+a
Annie and Jannie were walking to school, each walking at the same rate. Jannie started first, and when Jannie has walked 6 blocks, Anne has walked 2 blocks. How far will Anne be when Jannie is at 12 blocks?

Constant Relationship: 
Relationship between a variable and a product of another, they are directly proportional. 
Lisa and Frank are planting corn on the same farm. Frank plants 4 rows and Lisa plants 6 rows. If Lisa's corn is ready to pick in 8 weeks, how many weeks will it take for Lisa's corn to be ready?


Multiplicative reasoning: 
3 bags of sweets with 8 sweets in each bag. How many sweets all together?]]> 2018-04-09 18:38:55 UTC https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/249984532 amsaldan https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/249985555 2018-04-09 18:40:23 UTC https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/249985555 Alondra's Reaction amsaldan https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250931459 When reading this chapter I noticed how important it is for students to know what proportional reasoning is because it plays an important role in many concepts and you can always relate to the real world. When teaching proportional reasoning you should always include as many activities as you can to make it more engaging. In order for students to understand all math concepts they need to have a good understanding in proportional reasoning.]]> 2018-04-11 21:13:06 UTC https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250931459 Daniel's Reaction amsaldan https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250931496 Personally, this chapter related to me because it is one of the first standards to cover when teaching 6th grade, and even 7th grade. Proportions and ratios are used so often, even when students may not realize it. Another great thing about the chapter of proportional reasoning is that the activities can be extremely hands-on. Manipulatives and visual aids can easily be represented when discussing ratios. Students will use the concept of ratios all throughout their lives, so making it as relevant as possible will be most beneficial. Finally, when teaching this chapter, it's important to use the correct phrasing, because the terms can easily misinterpreted, so covering misinterpretations and misconceptions is vital for student understanding.

I do believe it is important to teach this to students. while growing up this subject was difficult for me. I believe it is because there were not many manipulates for me to utilize. I love that there are many different ways to teach this subject such as hands on activities, games, and videos, etc. I enjoy leaning new and different ways to teach a subject and ways that cater to all of the different types of learning.  ]]> 2018-04-11 21:13:45 UTC https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250931585 Natalie's Reaction amsaldan https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250931593 While reading through the chapter and learning about proportional reasoning, this was very fun for me. I was very interested in this topic and can see how fun this can be for students. The misconceptions that students might have, I had myself. There are many different resources that can be used for this topic as well. Games, lesson plans, activities and others are available through the internet. Along with this, I also think that this information is very important for students. This is used in real life, in many different situations and can ultimately be important in their future.]]> 2018-04-11 21:13:49 UTC https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250931593 https://study.com/academy/lesson/how-to-teach-proportional-reasoning-strategy-activities.html https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250931810 2018-04-11 21:15:01 UTC https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250931810 https://www.shoreline.edu/math-learning-center/documents/proportional-reasoning-article.pdf https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250932133 2018-04-11 21:16:53 UTC https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250932133 https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250932881 2018-04-11 21:20:43 UTC https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250932881 https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250932957 2018-04-11 21:21:09 UTC https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250932957 https://www.mathplayground.com/JakeVSAstro_Archive09.html https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250933035 2018-04-11 21:21:34 UTC https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250933035 https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Proportional-Reasoning-Worksheets-Test-7th-Grade-2575895 https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250933385 2018-04-11 21:23:27 UTC https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250933385 https://7math.wikispaces.com/Proportional+Reasoning https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250933478 2018-04-11 21:23:58 UTC https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250933478 https://az.pbslearningmedia.org/resource/f9dbedd6-b4ed-47b4-bdd1-69ab5c73deae/f9dbedd6-b4ed-47b4-bdd1-69ab5c73deae/#.Ws59GWaZPq0 https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250933668 2018-04-11 21:24:59 UTC https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250933668 Using construction paper, students will use proportional reasoning. https://padlet.com/amsaldan/d5lcqwytrbwd/wish/250934383 An architect decides to build a colorful new home using red and blue bricks.

Understand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems.
6.RP.A.1 Understand the concept of a ratio as comparing two quantities multiplicatively or joining/composing the two quantities in a way that preserves a multiplicative relationship. Use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities. For example, "There were 2/3 as many men as women at the concert.”
