4. SHIFT 2 Grades 6-12 KNOWLEDGE IN THE DISCIPLINES Reading & Writing Literacy Standards Complement, not replace content standards Depending on text rather than referring to it Read a president’s speech & write a response Read scientific papers & write an analysis Think sophisticated non-fiction Analyze and evaluate texts within disciplines Gain knowledge from texts that convey complex information through diagrams, charts, evidence, & illustrations Expectation of rigorous domain specific literacy instruction outside of ELA

10. SHIFT 3 Staircase of Complexity PRE-CCLS A ratio compares two numbers by division. The ratio of two numbers a and b can be written as a to b, a:b, or a/b, where b=0. For example, the rations 1 to 2, 1:2, and ½ all represent the same comparison. A proportion is an equation stating that two ratios are equal. In the proportion a/b=c/d, the values a and d are the extremes. The values b and c are the means. When proportion is written as a:b=c:d, the examples are the first and last positions. The means are in the two middle positions.

11. SHIFT 3 Staircase of Complexity POST-CCLS In everyday life, we use the word ”proportion” either for the comparative relation between parts of things with respect to size or quantity or when we want to describe harmonious relationship between different parts. In mathematics, the term “proportion” is used to describe equality of the type: nine is to three as six is to two. The Golden Ratio has been used in [art, architecture, design, and music] to achieve what we might term as “visual (or audio) effectiveness.” One of the properties contributing to such effectiveness is proportion – the size and relationships of part to one another and to the whole. The history of art shows that in the long search for an elusive canon of “perfect” proportion, one would somehow automatically confer aesthetically pleasing qualities on all works of art, the Golden Ratio has proven to be the most enduring.

12. SHIFT 4 TEXT-BASED ANSWERS Questions tied directly to the text, but extend beyond the literal Students must cite text to support answers Personal opinions, experiences, and connections to the text are minimized in favor of what the text actually says or doesn’t say Questions are purposefully planned & direct students to closely examine the text

13. SHIFT 4 Text-based Answers Question: The ratio of the side lengths of a quadrilateral is 2:3:5:7, and its perimeter is 85ft. What is the length of the longest side? PRE-CCLS A ratio compares two numbers by division. The ratio of two numbers a and b can be written as a to b, a:b, or a/b, where b=0.

The means are in the two middle positions.

14. SHIFT 4 Text-based Answers Question: Describe how the idea of proportion can be applied to mathematical concepts as well as life and culture. Use specific examples from the text to support your answer. POST-CCLS In everyday life, we use the word ”proportion” either for the comparative relation between parts of things with respect to size or quantity or when we want to describe harmonious relationship between different parts.

17. SHIFT 5 WRITING FROM SOURCES Three Text Types Argument Supporting a claim with sound reasoning and relevant evidence Informational/ Explanatory Writing Increase subject knowledge Explain a process Enhance comprehension Narrative Writing Conveys experience i.e. fictional stories, memoirs, anecdotes, autobiographies Appendix C: Samples of Student Writing Argumentative writing is especially prominent in the CCLS

18. SHIFT 5 Writing from Sources 1. Is the ratio 6:7 the same as 7:6? Why or why not? 2. Susan wants to know if the fractions 3/7 and 12/18 are equivalent. Explain how she can use the properties of proportions to find out. 3. Copy and complete the graphic organizer. In the boxes, write the definition of a proportion, the properties of proportions, and examples and non- examples of a proportion. Pre-CCLS

19. SHIFT 5 Writing from Sources Architect, mathematician, and engineer, Richard Buckminster Fuller once said, “When I am working on a problem, I never think about beauty. I think only of how to solve the problem. But when I have finished, if the solution is not beautiful, I know it is wrong.” Use your knowledge of proportions and the text, The Golden Ratio to agree or disagree with this quote. Define and explain the mystery of the golden ratio. Provide examples of mathematical and real life applications of the golden ratio. Show the mathematics of the golden ratio as it applies to your examples. Post-CCLS
