The Escalator, Assessment Variation

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This The Escalator, Assessment Variation lesson plan also includes:
  • Molly's Run
  • Riding at a Constant Speed
  • Answer Key
  • Worksheet
  • Join to access all included materials

A great way to practice with unit rates, the activity gives your mathematicians an opportunity to compare different statements and select which are true. They can practice with "choose all that apply" by setting each statement into its unit rate. Use the optional assessment tasks, Riding at a Constant Speed and Molly's Run, to practice these skills.
