Task
Materials
One 10-frame per pair of students (see example below)
[IMG]
Counters, 10 per pair of students
Decks of number cards 0-5 (with 4 of each number) or two 0-5 dice
Setup
This activity is done in pairs. The students sit side by side with 10-frame and deck of cards or dice. If they have cards, the cards are shuffled and placed face down in front of them.
Action
Player 1 flips a card or rolls the die. They place that many counters on the 10-frame. Player 2 flips a card or rolls the die. They place that many more counters on the 10-frame next to the counters already on the ten frame. The students count the total together.
A recording sheet can be added when the students have been introduced to equations and number sentences. For those students who can handle higher numbers, a deck of 0-10 cards and two 10-frames can be used.
This game can also be played alone.


Concept/skill: 
Solve addition and subtraction word problems, and add and subtract within 10, e.g., by using objects or drawings to represent the problem.

Answer: 
No. Though this task involves addition, it does not involve any word problems.

Now, does the problem or activity shown below enable students to learn the full intent of the following concept or skill?

K
standard_description: Apply and extend previous understandings of addition and subtraction to add and subtract rational numbers; represent addition and subtraction on a horizontal or vertical number line diagram.
problem_activity: Warm-up
The purpose of this activity is to focus students' attention on the two parts of a complex number: the real part and the imaginary part. This will be useful in the Information Gap, when students will need to be specific about the information they want and to strategize about how to use it (MP1).
Launch
Display the following for all to see:
\((a+bi)-(\underline{\phantom{00}} + \underline{\phantom{00}}i) = \text?\)
Ask, "In order for the result of this subtraction to be a real number, what has to be true about the missing imaginary part of the complex number subtracted from
\(a+bi\)
?" (It has to match the imaginary part of the other expression so it will sum to 0, which means that
\(b\)
must go in the blank.) After quiet think time, invite students to share their thoughts with a partner. Then invite partners to share with the class.
Student Facing
Here are some complex numbers with an unknown difference:
\((10+4i)-(\underline{\phantom{00}} + \underline{\phantom{00}}i) = \text?\)
If the result of this subtraction is a real number, what could the second complex number be?
If the result of this subtraction is an imaginary number, what could the second complex number be?

Activity Synthesis
Ask students to share the expressions they made by filling in the blanks. Highlight what is common about the responses to each question (all responses to the first question have the same imaginary part, and all responses to the second question have the same real part).
Tell students that in the next activity they will continue to reason about the real and imaginary parts of complex numbers based on what they know about how the numbers are combined.
