What the Students are Learning

Comparing and Scaling room 212

Making Comparisons

• Make comparisons.

• Develop ways to use ratios, fractions, rates and unit

rates, to answer questions involving proportional

 reasoning.

Investigations 2 

Comparing by Finding Percents

• Make sensible comparisons of data using ratios, fractions,

and decimal rates, with a focus on percents.

• Make judgments about rounding data to estimate ratio

comparisons.

Investigations 3

Comparing by Using Ratios

• Recognize situations in which ratios are a useful form

of comparison.

• Form, label, and interpret ratios from numbers given

 or implied in a situation.

• Solve scaling problems involving ratios (solving 

proportions). 

Investigations 4 

Comparing by Finding Rates

• Find unit rates.

• Represent data in tables and graphs.

• Find the missing value in a proportion.

Investigations 5

Estimating Populations and Population Densities

• Use geometric scaling to estimate population counts.

• Apply proportional reasoning.

• Use ratios to find missing values in a proportion.

• Use rates to describe population and traffic density
