UNIT 4 January & February
This unit is focused on Ratios, Rates, and Unit Rates.
6.RP.1: Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities.
For example, "The ratio of wings to beaks in the bird house at the zoo was 2:1, because for every 2 wings there was 1 beak." "For every vote candidate A received, candidate C received nearly three votes."
6.RP.2: Understand the concept of a unit rate a/b associated with a ratio a:b, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship.
For example, "This recipe has a ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar, so there is 3/4 cup of flour for each cup of sugar." "We paid $75 for 15 hamburgers, which is a rate of $5 per hamburger."
6.RP.3: USe ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations. 6.RP.3a: Make tables of equivalent ratios relating quantities with whole-number measurements, find missing values in the tables, and plot the pairs of values on the coordinate plane. Use tables to compare ratios. 6.RP.3b: Solve unit rate problems including those involving unit pricing and constant speed. 6.RP.3c: Find a percent of a quantity as a rate per 100 (e.g., 30% of a quantity means 30/100 times the quantity); solve problems involving finding the whole, given a part and the percent.

Stock Thesis (due Friday)
Write or type one paragraph to convince your team members that they should invest in the company you have been researching. Include the following information.
- why this is a particularly strong stock to buy
- what is the 52-week high and low for this stock
- what is the industry this stock is a part of and how is the industry doing on the whole
- what price range would you like to buy in? (in other words how expensive can it get before you will reconsider?)
UNIT 2 & 3 November/December
We will be addressing the following standards in the next few weeks.
6.EE.1: Write and evaluate numerical expressions involving whole-number exponents
6.EE.2: Write, read, and evaluate expressions in which letters stand for numbers. Write expressions that record operations with numbers and with letters standing for numbers. Identify parts of an expression using mathematical terms. Evaluate expressions at specific values of their variables (including real-world formulas & problems). Use the order of operations.
6.EE.3: Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions.
6.EE.4: Identify when two expressions are equivalent (when two expressions name the same number regardless of which value is substituted into them).
