 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: Distinguish between situations that can be modeled with linear functions and with exponential functions.
problem_activity: Optional activity
In this activity students compute rates to decide which job applicant is working the fastest checking online comments. They compare rates and total number of comments checked, then see that using rates is the more useful information in this situation.
Launch
Keep students in the same groups of 2.
Representation: Internalize Comprehension.
Activate or supply background knowledge. Allow students to use calculators to ensure inclusive participation in the activity.
Supports accessibility for: Memory; Conceptual processing
Student Facing
A company is hiring people to read through all the comments posted on their website to make sure they are appropriate. Four people applied for the job and were given one day to show how quickly they could check comments.
Person 1 worked for 210 minutes and checked a total of 50,000 comments.
Person 2 worked for 200 minutes and checked 1,325 comments every 5 minutes.
Person 3 worked for 120 minutes, at a rate represented by
\(c = 331t\)
,
where
\(c\)
is the number of comments checked and
\(t\)
is the time in minutes.
Person 4 worked for 150 minutes, at a rate represented by
\(t = \left( \frac{3}{800} \right) c\)
.
Order the people from greatest to least in terms of total number of comments checked.
Order the people from greatest to least in terms of how fast they checked the comments.

Activity Synthesis
Ask students which job applicant should get the job and why. If time permits, consider using MLR 1 (Stronger and Clearer Each Time).
Representing, Conversing: MLR7 Compare and Connect.
Use this routine to prepare students for the whole-class discussion. At the appropriate time, invite students to create a visual display showing which job applicant should get the job and why.  Allow students time to quietly circulate and analyze the selections and justifications in at least 2 other displays in the room. Give students quiet think time to consider what is the same and what is different and whether or not they agree. Next, ask students to find a partner to discuss what they noticed. Listen for and amplify observations that highlight advantages and disadvantages to each method of determining the top job applicant. This will help students identify situation when comparing rates is more effective than the sum of quantities.
Design Principle(s): Optimize output (for justification); Cultivate conversation
