Description
Solving proportions and comparing unit rates are the focus of these creative and engaging notes and practice.
- Use these math wheels to introduce or review unit rates and proportions.
What is a math wheel? It's a type of graphic organizer where students can:
- Take notes/guided notes inside the math wheel
- Use color, drawing, and doodling to help create memory triggers
- Complete practice problems in the pattern around the wheel, and
- Color the background pattern
Students can keep these graphic organizers in their interactive notebooks all year as a personal anchor chart or reference sheet.
- These wheels are excellent for reviewing concepts as part of your test prep.
There are two wheels included - one for unit rates and one for proportions.
The sections of the proportions wheel are:
1) What is a proportion?
2) Writing proportions
3) Cross products
4) To solve…
5) Examples
The sections of the unit rates wheel are:
1) What is a unit rate?
2) Finding a unit rate
3) Find the better deal
This proportions and units rates resource includes:
1) TWO wheels with THREE versions of each
- ‘Open’ for students to write notes - this version is most flexible, space-wise; it also allows more flexibility in the way you phrase the notes
- Fill-in notes, to help control student use of space
- Pre-filled notes for absentees, new students or students who need pre-filled; answers to examples and practice problems are NOT on this version
⭐️Each wheel comes with a patterned background and with no pattern in the background.
2) Teacher keys with completed notes and examples
3) Colored samples of wheels
4) PPT file with four editable templates, so you can add text to make your own wheels, if you’d like (for classroom use only - not commercial use)
Features of this easy-to-use resource:
1) Notes sections and examples (notes are just suggestions, and you can alter them or use other examples that better fit your instruction if you’d like)
2) Guided or independent practice:
- 11 problems in the pattern around the proportions circle.
- 8 practice problems around the unit rates circle.
3) Coloring/doodling opportunity: students can color the background pattern, as well as the headings and doodle arrows.
Coloring the background, if you use the patterned versions:
- Students don’t HAVE to color at all during instructional time….coloring the background could be an ‘early finisher’ activity, center activity, homework, etc.
- Students don’t need to color every section of the background – part of their coloring pattern could be to leave sections white.
- Students could color sections with patterns instead of solids – maybe polka dots in one section and squiggly lines in another.
- This coloring part is just a chance to be creative and enjoy the stress-relief coloring can provide.
What teachers are saying about this resource:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“This was such a fun way to take notes. My summer school students loved it. Can't wait to use it when school starts again.”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“Love these for review - my students fill in the vocabulary and the questions. Makes much more of a fun review than a worksheet!”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“Fun, creative way to take notes and easy to use!”
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“My students made great connections to the breakdown of the basic problems before we applied them to problem solving cards.”
