As he prepares lesson plans, Ben Davis always begins with a specific objective, such as, "Students will understand and be able to identify examples of ratios in their day-to-day experience." He then writes, "Have students describe the ratio of girls to boys in the class. Have them describe the ratio of boys to girls. Have them identify some additional personalized examples."
Ben then conducts his lesson, during which several examples of ratios are discussed and explained. On Friday he gives the students a quiz, and the following is one of the items on the
quiz.
You're riding your bike along a bike path in your neighborhood, and you meet 6 people jogging, 8 people walking, and 5 people on bicycles. Counting yourself, what is the ratio of people on bikes to
