A Story of Ratios Grade 6 – Module 6
Session 2 Objectives • Understand the mathematical concepts within G6-M6. • Practice collecting evidence of effective instruction using lesson transcripts. • Discuss feedback strategies for supporting scaffolding and accommodation techniques for special populations.
A Story of RatiosScaffolding Mathematics Instruction Key Points • Amplify Language • Move from Concrete to Representation to Abstract • Give Specific Guidelines for Speaking, Reading, Writing, or Listening
Amplify Language • Give clear mathematical definitions • Explain multiple meanings • Maintain consistency and point out interchangeable terminology
Move from Concrete to Representation to Abstract • Use familiar contexts • Visually organize thinking • Provide multiple representations
Give Guidelines for Speaking, Reading, Writing, or Listening • Provide structured opportunities to speak and write in English • Give explicit instructions in student-friendly language • Use visuals or examples in giving instructions.

What’s In a Module? • Teacher Materials • Module Overview • Topic Overviews • Daily Lessons • Assessments • Student Materials • Daily Lessons with Problem Sets • Copy Ready Materials • Exit Tickets • Fluency Worksheets / Sprints • Assessments
Types of Lessons • Problem Set Students and teachers work through examples and complete exercises to develop or reinforce a concept. • Socratic Teacher leads students in a conversation to develop a specific concept or proof. • Exploration Independent or small group work on a challenging problem followed by debrief to clarify, expand or develop math knowledge. • Modeling Students practice all or part of the modeling cycle with real-world or mathematical problems that are ill-defined.
What’s In a Lesson? • Teacher Materials Lessons • Student Outcomes and Lesson Notes (in select lessons) • Classwork • General directions and guidance, including timing guidance • Bulleted discussion points with expected student responses • Student classwork with solutions (boxed) • Exit Ticket with Solutions • Problem Set with Solutions • Student Materials • Classwork • Problem Set

A re-wording • G6-M6 • Example 1: What is a Statistical Question? • Jerome collects major league baseball cards. • His collection contains cards of both current players and past (retired) players. • Each card has a picture of a player as well as information about that player. • His classmates asked Jerome the following questions about his baseball cards: • How many cards does Jerome have altogether? • What is the typical cost of a card in Jerome’s collection? • Where did Jerome get the cards? • Which of these questions is a statistical question? • G6-M6 • Example 1: What is a Statistical Question? • Jerome, a 6th grader at Roosevelt Middle School, is a huge football fan. He loves to collect baseball cards. He has cards of current players and players from past seasons. With his teacher’s permission, Jerome brought his baseball card collection to school. Each card has a picture of a current or past major league baseball player, along with information about the player. When he placed his cards out for the other students to see, they ask Jerome all sorts of questions. Some asked: • How many cards does Jerome have altogether? • What is the typical cost of a card in Jerome’s collection? • Where did Jerome get the cards? • Which of these questions is a statistical question?
