KSP Математика 6 grade: Основное свойство пропорции

Introduction

This Grade 6 Mathematics lesson plan on “The Fundamental Property of Proportions” helps teachers teach students the key rule of proportions and how to apply it in solving problems.

Main material

Lesson objective: to develop understanding of the fundamental property of proportions and apply it to find unknown terms.

Expected outcomes:

students know the fundamental property of proportions;
apply it to find unknown values;
correctly form proportions;
use it in practical problems.

Lesson structure:

Organization
Greeting.
Prior knowledge
Review proportions and ratios.
New topic
Proportion: a : b = c : d
Property: product of extremes equals product of means
Form: a × d = b × c
Examples:
2 : 3 = 4 : 6
x : 5 = 10 : 2 → x = 25
Practice
Find x: x : 6 = 12 : 3
Find x: 4 : x = 8 : 2
Practical problem: if 2 kg of apples cost 600, how much do 5 kg cost?
Consolidation
Pair work: discuss, check, and correct mistakes.
Reflection
Discuss applications (prices, distance, scale).
Conclusion
Summary, brief feedback, mention results (5–10%).

Teaching methods: explanation, practical work, pair work, discussion.

Frequently Asked Questions
