You must have an account with Google to use this resource. This resource works very well either in your classroom, or with distance learning or homeschooled students, with Google Classroom.

This includes three short Google Form Quizzes you can use to help your students practice solving proportion problems. Proportions or proportional relationships are equations that have a ratio on both sides. The ratios are equivalent. These proportions have a variable on one side as seen below:

X/40=1/5

Students solve these problems by cross-multiplying. They multiply the numerator of the first ratio times the denominator of the second, and the denominator of the first times to the numerator of the second, to get this equation: 5X = 40. They can then solve this easily by dividing both sides by 5. X = 8.

Use it to check your students’ understanding after their first Proportion Problems lesson (Grade 6 Ratio Reasoning Proportion Problems Guided Notes 1).

6.RP.A.3 Proportion Problems Check In 1 includes four questions. 6.RP.A.3 Proportion Problems Check In 1a and 6.RP.A.3 Proportion Problems Check In 1b each include two of the four questions. Every question is required, and the students’ work is graded on the spot.

Because the first two problems are easier from the third and fourth, it makes sense to either assign every student Check In 1, or both Check In 1a and 1b.

Good times to use this:

1)Review from older concepts

2)Warmup for the day

3)Application of knowledge (middle or end of the period
