Task
Cruz and Erica were both getting ready for soccer.
Cruz ran 1 lap around the school.
Erica ran 3 laps around the playground.
Erica said,
I ran more laps, so I ran farther.
Cruz said,
4 laps around the school is 1 mile, but it takes 12 laps around the playground to go 1 mile. My laps are much longer, so I ran farther.

Concept/skill: 
Compare two decimals to hundredths by reasoning about their size. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two decimals refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with the symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual model.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.

Answer: 
No. This task does not involve comparing decimals to hundredths. Instead, it involves fraction comparisons.

standard_description: Use volume formulas for cylinders, pyramids, cones, and spheres to solve problems.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to use what they know about making a ten to identify which addition expressions are equivalent to
\(10 + n\)
expressions. Students should have access to double 10-frames and connecting cubes or two-color counters.
The Compare Stage 2 Addition Cards will be used again in a later lesson.
Required Materials
Materials to Gather
Connecting cubes or two-color counters
Double 10-frames
Materials to Copy
Compare Stage 2 Addition Cards to 20
Required Preparation
Create a set of Compare Stage 2 Addition Cards to 20 from the blackline master for each group of 3.
Launch
Groups of 3
Give each group a set of cards and access to double 10-frames and connecting cubes or two-color counters.
Activity
Read the task statement.
8 minutes: small-group work
Student Facing
Take out all the expression cards that have the number 10.
Mix up the rest of the cards.
Pick a card.
Place the card under the expression with 10 that it is equal to.
