Introduction to Tape Diagrams

About This Lesson

This lesson begins with a review of what a ratio is and has students identify various ratios for a given situation. They will also watch a short video that showcases ratios in use in everyday life. There is an overarching question that is introduced before the mini-lesson that can be solved using the tool they learn today: tape diagrams. Students will be shown how tape diagrams are created based on the information in a problem. They will practice in a heavily scaffolded worksheet to fill in and later create tape diagrams. Aligned with Common Core State Standards: 6.RP.3 , 6.RP.3a

Great Lesson
This lesson was a great substitute for the lesson plan that we were going to use from our district supported curriculum. This lesson plan was engaging, colorful, and comprehensive.
