I love chocolate, so I’m going to get a slice of
the 6-layer cake!
I want the one that has more chocolate flavor, so I’m getting
the 3-layer cake!
The Chocolatey Cake Debate
If you wanted to buy a slice of the cake that had the most chocolate flavor, which slice of cake would you buy?

• Work on your own to decide which cake is more chocolatey
• Put your paper aside when you are done so that we know that you have finished
• Then work with your group members to decide on an answer
• Are you tempted to change your answer that you wrote down?

Mr. Short and Mr. Tall
When Mr. Short is measured in paper clips, he is 6 paper clips tall. When he is measured in buttons, he is 4 buttons tall.
Mr. Short has a friend named Mr. Tall. When Mr. Tall is measured in buttons, he is 6 buttons tall. How many paper clips tall is Mr. Tall?

• Proportional Thinkers understand that (Van de Walle):– There is a clear difference between
proportional relationships and non-proportional relationships, especially in the real world
– There are a variety of strategies for solving proportions or comparing ratios (that are not prescribed algorithms)
– There are relationships where 2 quantities vary together (covariation)

• It is important to develop proportional reasoning both in ourselves and our students
• Develop slowly over middle school years, not just a couple weeks in 6th grade
• Common Core addresses this

• Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations.

• Recognize and represent proportional relationships between quantities. – Decide whether two quantities are in a
proportional relationship, e.g., by testing for equivalent ratios in a table or graphing on a coordinate plane and observing whether the graph is a straight line through the origin.
• Use proportional relationships to solve multistep ratio and percent problems.

• Graph proportional relationships, interpreting the unit rate as the slope of the graph. Compare two different proportional relationships represented in different ways.
