Nils' Sesame Street Video Post

Our group was Nils, Errol, and Sam.
Rates
-compares two quantities measured in different units.
eg. 34km/2hours
Unit Rate
-a rate in which the second term is one.
eg. 3 potatoes/kilogram
Unit Price
-a unit rate used when shopping.
eg. $3.00/pound
Ratios
Two Term Ratio
-compares two quantities measured in the same unit.
eg. a:b, a to b, 3:4
Three Term Ratio
-compares three quantities measured in the same unit.
eg. a:b:c, a to b to c, 3:4:3
Part to Part Ratio
-compares different parts of the group to each other
eg. part:part
Part to Whole Ratio
-compares one part of the group to the group
eg part:whole
Proportional Reasoning
-a relationship that says that two ratios or two rates are equal
eg. 3/4=6/8
We rewrote this video. Grover tries to rearrange the letter "A" after an accident.



Here's our version.

  5. Good job Nils! You're definitions and examples were all there but it kind of got me confused because the "rate, unit rate etc" were in the middle and the definitions were on the left side. Next time try to put then all on one side. Although, I really enjoyed your video. It was interesting and simple. Keep it up!
