Learning Intention
What did you learn today?
We are working with ratios right now. 
How did you show what you learned?
We know 3 ways to show a ratio (3:2 OR 3 to 2 OR 3/2)  and are learning how to create equivalent ratios and ratios in the simplest terms. 
What do you need to learn next?
We need to have a bit more practice with this and complete a few projects connected to ratios.
