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.


Description: 
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, assess whether the following problem or activity aligns with the provided description.

K
standard_description: Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division and of fractions to multiply and divide rational numbers.
problem_activity: Warm-up
The purpose of this activity is to remind students of a few details to keep in mind when doing arithmetic with signed numbers, particularly that subtracting a number has the same result as adding its opposite, and the sign of the product when multiplying two negative numbers, or a positive by a negative number.
Student Facing
Sort these into two groups, so that the expressions in each group all have the same value.
\(3-5\)
\(5+3\)
\(4 \boldcdot 2\)
\(\text- \frac13 \boldcdot 6\)
\(5 - \text-3\)
\(\text-4 \boldcdot \text-2\)
\(3 + \text-5\)
\(\frac13 \boldcdot \text-6\)

Activity Synthesis
Use students’ explanations for why expressions are equal to draw attention to things to keep in mind when doing arithmetic on signed numbers. For example:
Subtracting a number has the same result as adding its opposite.
\(3-5=3+\text-5\)
Multiplying a negative number by a negative number results in a positive product.
\(\text-4  \boldcdot \text-2\)
and
\(4 \boldcdot 2\)
are both equal to 8.
Multiplying a negative number by a positive number results in a negative product
\(\text- \frac13 \boldcdot 6\)
and
\(\frac13  \boldcdot \text-6\)
are both equal to -2.
