Ratios

For the first week of the term, my class was introduced to Ratios as our new topic. We were given
various questions on Ratios to answer as a group and work together to figure out what ways we could use to get the answer.
We created a slideshow as a pair on What is a Ratio? Where do we use Ratios? and How do we use ratios in our everyday life?

What are Ratios?
A ratio compares value. A ratio explains and shows how much one thing is compared to another.

Where do we use it?
Ratios can e used throughout our daily lives, like grocery shopping, cooking, traveling, and more 

What questions do you still have about __Ratios__?
How do we make it easier for ourselves to understand Ratios quicker?

What were some of your strengths and weaknesses in this unit? What is your plan to improve in your areas of weakness?

My strengths were I could do the work quickly when I understood it properly.
Weakness is that I had to keep conversing with others too long for me to understand.

Spend less time talking about the topic but look at the examples and see what I can learn from it.
