Advanced Proportional: Stage 8
Teaching sequence using the teaching model Knowledge Materials Imaging Number Properties-abstraction
Advanced Proportional Language
Proportion - Fraction Ratio – Comparison (same measure) Rate (different measures-80km per hour
40 slaters per square metre) Multiplicative relationships with rates and
ratios Proportional relationships between measures
Quantities co-vary (change together) To understand a ratio or a rate you must
distinguish a relationship that remains constant when two linked quantities are changing together
The constant relationship is not directly observable
AP Strategy learning outcomes Find proportional relationships between measures 12 headbands are made with 15 metres of ribbon.
How many headbands can you make from 25 metres of ribbon?
Convert from ratios to proportions and visa versa Find amounts in given ratios Four grey garden tiles are used too every three red
ones. If you use 210 tiles altogether how many are grey and how many are yellow.
Ratio using Fruit Cards Knowledge recap Materials Imaging Number Properties
Knowledge recapFraction versus a Ratio What fraction of the group is the pear? the orange? What fraction of the group are bananas?, apples? How many bananas compared to the apples in the
group? What is the ratio of lemons to pears?, lemons to
bananas?
Fruit Bowl Problems
Apples and OrangesThere are 3 oranges to every one apple in the bowlHow many apples and how mayoranges, if there are 40 pieces of fruit in the bowl?
24 in the bowl?16 in the bowl?52 in the bowl?
What fraction (proportion) are apples?What fraction (proportion) are oranges?
What is the ratio of oranges to apples?
Fruit Bowl Problems
Harder ratiosApples and Bananas
3 apples to every 2 bananas in the fruit bowl
How many apples and how many bananas if 40 in the bowl? 25 in the bowl? 60 in the bowl?
More FruitApples, bananas and oranges
For every 4 apples in a box
there are 3 bananas and 2 oranges
How many of each fruit if 45 in the box? 180 in the box? 72 in the box?
Make up Own Problems Make up a problem that someone else can
work out using three types of fruit, in a given ratio.
Challenge them to find a range of different amounts in the box.
Make up a problem using a different context that they can choose.
ImagingTransfer the model to other situations In a school of 360 pupils there are 5 boys to
every 4 girls. How many girls are there?
Joe works 3 days and Sam works 4 days painting a roof. Altogether they get paid $150. How much should each get?
Multilock block models Colour mixes 18 yellow with 6 blue in a mix to make a
green What mix might go into smaller pots to make
the same colour?
Proportional relationships-rate It takes 20 bales of hay a day to feed 300
sheep. How many bales would you need each day to feed 120 sheep.
How did you work it out?
Dog Biscuits The amount of dog biscuits to be feed to a
dog depends on the weight of the dog. If the packet recommends that an 18kg dog
needs 12 biscuits, how many biscuits should you feed a 30kg dog, a 10kg dog?
How did you work it out?
