 Narrative
 The first partner spins to get a group of coins. They write a question that compares the amount they spun to a different group of coins that they make up.

Concept/skill: 
Solve word problems involving dollar bills, quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies, using $ and ¬¢ symbols appropriately. Example: If you have 2 dimes and 3 pennies, how many cents do you have?

Answer: 
Yes. In this activity, students write word problems that compare coin amounts.

standard_description: Use the four operations to solve word problems involving distances, intervals of time, liquid volumes, masses of objects, and money, including problems involving simple fractions or decimals, and problems that require expressing measurements given in a larger unit in terms of a smaller unit. Represent measurement quantities using diagrams such as number line diagrams that feature a measurement scale.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this True or False is to give students an opportunity to deepen their understanding of the equal sign. This is the first time that students will do this instructional routine. Because equations are new to students, the teacher should read aloud each equation. When students are more familiar with equations, they will read the equations themselves when they do this routine. In the activity synthesis, students are asked to reword another student's thinking and justify the answer in a different way (MP3).
Launch
Display one statement.
“Give me a signal when you know whether the statement is true and can explain how you know.”

Activity
Share and record answers and strategy.
Repeat with each equation.
Student Facing
Is each statement true or false?
Be prepared to explain your reasoning.
\(10 = 10\)
\(4 + 6 = 10\)
\(2 + 7 = 10\)
