Description
This is an exciting lab that gets students up and moving around for math. Math is often times very dull because it is generally taught out of the book. Run Run Ratio is a very fun way to help students learn and practice measurement, rounding decimals, recording ratios, finding unit rate, comparing unit rates, and getting excited about math. Students will measure out a course with several different distances to run. 6 different runners will run while everyone else clocks their time and records their distance in the graphs provided. Students will then work on finding the unit rate of each of the runners in feet per second. They will compare unit rates to find out who is the fastest runner of them all.

CCSS6.RP.A.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.”
CCSS6.RP.A.2
Understand the concept of a unit rate 𝘢/𝘣 associated with a ratio 𝘢:𝘣 with 𝘣 ≠ 0, 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.”
CCSS6.RP.A.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.
