 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: Determine whether a group of objects (up to 20) has an odd or even number of members, e.g., by pairing objects or counting them by 2s; write an equation to express an even number as a sum of two equal addends.
problem_activity: Task
Suppose we are given a circle of radius $r$.  The goal of this task is to construct an equilateral triangle whose three vertices lie on the circle.
Suppose $\overline{AB}$ is a diameter of the circle.  Draw a circle with center $A$ and radius $r$ and label the two points of intersection of the circles $P$ and $Q$ as pictured below:
[IMG]
Show that $m(\angle ABP) = 30$ and $m(\angle ABQ) = 30$.
Show that
$\triangle PBQ$ is an equilateral triangle inscribed in the given circle.
