 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.

Description: 
Use addition and subtraction within 100 to solve one- and two-step word problems involving situations of adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all positions, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.

Answer: 
No. This activity does not involve addition or subtraction, or unknowns in different positions of equations or drawings.

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

standard_description: Write a function that describes a relationship between two quantities.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this True or False is for students to demonstrate strategies they have for using equivalent fractions to add and subtract fractions with different denominators. These mental calculations prepare students for working with more complex common denominators during this lesson.
Launch
Display one statement.
“Give me a signal when you know whether the statement is true and can explain how you know.”
1 minute: quiet think time
Activity
Share and record answers and strategy.
Repeat with each statement.
Student Facing
Decide if each statement is true or false. Be prepared to explain your reasoning.
\(\frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{4}=\frac{3}{4}\)
\(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{2}{4}\)
\(\frac{3}{4}-\frac{1}{2}=\frac{2}{4}\)

Activity Synthesis
“How can we find the correct value of
\(\frac{3}{4}-\frac{1}{2}\)
?” (
\(\frac{1}{2}=\frac{2}{4}\)
so
\(\frac{3}{4}-\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{4}\)
.)
