Example 1:
Problem/activity:
You’re mixing ingredients for cookies. The recipe says to combine 6 tablespoons, or ¾ stick, of butter with 1 cup of sugar. You accidentally mix in a whole stick of butter (8 tablespoons) with the cup of sugar. How can you fix this?


Description: 
Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations.

Answer: 
Yes. This problem solves a real-world problem involving mixing ingredients for cookies. A student doing this problem would need to reason about equivalent ratios of butter amounts to sugar amounts.

Example 2:
Problem/activity:
For each pair of numbers, determine if the values are equivalent. Explain your reasoning for each one.
a.
$$-0.25$$
and
$$\frac{1}{-4}$$
b.
$$-\left ( \frac{1}{4} \right )$$
and
$$\frac{-1}{-4}$$
c.
$$\frac{-1}{4}$$
and
$$-\frac{1}{4}$$


Description: 
Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication to multiply a fraction or whole number by a fraction.

Answer: 
No. The expressions shown in this problem do not involve multiplying fractions with other fractions, nor whole numbers with fractions.

Problem 2
Kim has a small container and a large container as shown.
[IMG]
It takes 16 of the small containers to fill the large container. Three small containers leave 1.95 gallons of space in the big container.
What is the size of each of the two containers?


Description: 
Analyze and solve pairs of simultaneous linear equations.

Answer: 
Yes. The last three rows of the table in the first problem involves solving pairs of simultaneous linear equations. The second word problem can also be represented as two simultaneous linear equations.

Matching Game
with linear equations and graphs. Note that this requires some advance preparation.
Directions for students:
Find a partner and clear off your desks.
Separate the cards into a pile with equations and a pile with graphs.
Turn the equation cards over and organize them into rows/columns on one desk.
Turn the graph cards over and organize them into rows/columns on another desk.
On the first person’s turn, turn over an equation card and a graph card. If the cards match, then the player gets to keep the cards. If they do not match, turn the cards over in the same spot. The turn is over.
NOTE: If the player believes she or he has a match, then the player must prove that there is a match. The other player has the option to disagree and explain why. If the other player is right (and the first player was mistaken), then the other player gets to keep the card and then take a turn.
Repeat step 5 for the second player’s turn.
The game is over when all cards have been matched. The person with the most number of pairs wins the round. Another round may be played.
