Example 1:
Problem/activity:
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.

Example 2:
Problem/activity:
Task
 Arrange the fractions in order from least to greatest. Explain your answer with a picture.
 $\frac{1}{5}, \frac{1}{7}, \frac{1}{3} $
 $\frac{2}{5}, \frac{2}{7}, \frac{2}{3} $
 $\frac{5}{6}, \frac{3}{6}, \frac{1}{6} $
 $\frac{5}{12}, \frac{8}{12}, \frac{4}{12} $

Concept/skill: 
Understand a fraction as a number on the number line; represent fractions on a number line diagram.
 Grade 3 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8.

Answer: 
No. Completing this task does not involve representing fractions on a number line diagram.

Example 3:
Problem/activity:
Problem 1
Solve using the standard algorithm. If you get stuck, use an area model and/or the partial products algorithm to help. Then assess the reasonableness of your answer.
a.
$$5,803\times46$$
b.
$$63\times2,116$$
Problem 2
Dunkin' introduced a croissant doughnut in 2014. In the first three months of its debut, they sold 7,870 dozen of them per day. How many croissant doughnuts were sold in the first three months?


Concept/skill: 
Fluently add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to whole numbers less than or equal to 1,000,000.

Answer: 
No. This set of problems does not directly involve adding or subtracting multi-digit whole numbers. Instead, it focuses on multiplying multi-digit whole numbers.

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

standard_description: Measure and estimate liquid volumes and masses of objects using standard units of grams (g), kilograms (kg), and liters (l). (Excludes compound units such as cm^(3) and finding the geometric volume of a container.) Add, subtract, multiply, or divide to solve one-step word problems involving masses or volumes that are given in the same units, e.g., by using drawings (such as a beaker with a measurement scale) to represent the problem. [Excludes multiplicative comparison problems (problems involving notions of “times as much”)]
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to think of questions that can be answered using the data representation they create as they collect data from the class. Although there are two different sets of data, all of the questions students ask should be able to be answered using either data set. Questions are compiled during the synthesis and will be used in the following activity.
If necessary, use the provided blackline master instead of collecting data from the class. Cut the blackline master in half and give half the class data from Group A and the other half data from Group B.

Groups of 2
“We are going to take another survey and ask questions about the data.”
Decide on a survey question the class would like to answer and three possible responses.
“Record the title of the data representation and each category.”
Demonstrate recording the titles.
Divide the class into Group A and Group B. Each partnership should have one person from each group.
“Group A is going to take the survey first. If you are in Group B, record the data in your book as I record it for all to see.”
Ask students in Group A the survey question and record the data on the table using tally marks and numbers.
“Now Group B is going to take the survey and Group A will record the data.”
Ask students in Group B the survey question and record the data on the table using tally marks and numbers.
Activity
“Now, think of as many questions as you can that can be answered using your data representation. Record your questions in your book if you would like.”

Advancing Student Thinking
If students make statements instead of questions, consider asking:
“What is the question you want your partner to answer?”
“How could you finish this question, ‘How many students chose _____?’”
Activity Synthesis
Share and record the students’ questions about their data.
“Now we will ask our partner some of these questions.”
