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: 
Represent addition and subtraction with objects, fingers, mental images, drawings (Drawings need not show details, but should show the mathematics in the problem. (This applies wherever drawings are mentioned in the Standards.)), sounds (e.g., claps), acting out situations, verbal explanations, expressions, or equations.

Answer: 
Yes. This task involves representing addition with objects such as number cards and dice.

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

K
standard_description: Solve multistep word problems posed with whole numbers and having whole-number answers using the four operations, including problems in which remainders must be interpreted. Represent these problems using equations with a letter standing for the unknown quantity. Assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies including rounding.
problem_activity: Task
Part I.
a. How many circles are there in all?  Write down a number sentence that shows how you thought about it.
[IMG]
b. Alonso said he figured out how many shaded circles there were first and then how many unshaded circles there were second.  Once he knew how many of each, he added them together to find the total.  Write a number sentence Alonso could have used that shows his reasoning.
c. Jennifer said, “I just saw 3 rows of 8 circles.”  Write a number sentence that Jennifer could have used that shows her reasoning.
​Part II.
a. The area model below shows the floor plan for a storage closet.  The storage closet will have a tiled floor with grey tiles on the left and white tiles on the right.  How many tiles are needed for the storage closet in all?  Write down a number sentence that shows how you thought about it.
[IMG]
b. Think back to how Alonso figured out how many circles there were in Part I.  Use Alonso’s same strategy here to find out how many tiles are needed.  Write a number sentence with Alonso’s reasoning.
c. Think back to how Jennifer figured out how many circles there were in Part I.  Use Jennifer’s same strategy here to find out how many tiles are needed.  Write a number sentence with Jennifer's reasoning.
