Skittles and math? Pupils will work as a class to determine how many orange Skittles are in a large bag by using proportions. They will problem solve, estimate, and share their thinking. Then, they will each receive a small bag of...

Address any kind of math concept or problem with a series of problem-solving strategies. Over 12 days of different activities and increasing skills, learners practice different ways to solve problems, check their answers, and reflect...

Changing ratios make for interesting problems. Pupils solve problems that involve ratios between two quantities that change. Groups use tape diagrams to represent and solve classroom exercises and share their solutions. 

Combine total quantities and equivalent ratios in problem solving. The fifth lesson in a series of 29 presents problems that can be solved using equivalent ratios. Pupils use part-to-part ratios and either sums or differences of the...

Join Zoe and Sam as they use proportions to budget money for their Green Earth Club. Watch as they set up and solve a series of proportions using cross multiplication and division. A great resource that brings together prior knowledge of...

The interactive assessment examines ratios, proportions, and percents. Students complete 18 questions created by Glencoe. Hints and solutions are included.

Given pictorial representations, the student will use geometric concepts and properties to solve problems from art and architecture.

The use of rate, ratio, and proportion is illustrated in this video about action photography. An additional interactive element allows students to explore equivalent ratios equivalencies through enlarging and reducing images to compare...

Review three video clips for one major concept. The resource contains three short clips to introduce the idea of ratios and proportions and how to solve a proportion. After watching the video, partners use their noses to push pom poms...

Are these two given ratios proportional? One quick and easy way to answer this question is to cross multiply the two values. If the products are equal then they are proportional ratios. If they are not equal then they are not...
