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.

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.


Answer: 
No. Though this task involves addition, it does not involve any word problems.

Now, determine whether the following problem or activity can enable students to understand the concepts or skills in the provided description.

standard_description: Classify two-dimensional figures based on the presence or absence of parallel or perpendicular lines, or the presence or absence of angles of a specified size. Recognize right triangles as a category, and identify right triangles.
problem_activity: Narrative
In this activity, students learn how to use a protractor. They align a protractor to the vertex and a ray of an angle so that its measurement can be read. The given angles are oriented in different ways, drawing students’ attention to the two sets of scales on a protractor. Students need to consider which set of numbers to pay attention to and think about a possible explanation for when or how to use each scale. Moreover, one of the scales is only marked in increments of 10 degrees so if students use this scale they need to reason carefully about the precise angle measure (MP6).
This activity uses
MLR1 Stronger and Clearer Each Time. Advances: reading, writing.
Action and Expression: Internalize Executive Functions.
Invite students to estimate the size of the angle before finding each precise measurement. Offer the sentence frame: “This angle will be greater than _____ and less than _____. It will be closer to _____.”
Supports accessibility for: Conceptual Processing, Visual-Spatial Processing, Attention
Launch
Groups of 2–4
Activity
5 minutes: independent work time
2–3 minutes: group discussion
Monitor for students who find each measurement by:
looking for the scale with a ray on
\(0^\circ\)
and counting up on that scale
subtracting the two numbers (on the same scale) that the rays pass through
MLR1 Stronger and Clearer Each Time
“Share your response to the last problem with your partner. Take turns being the speaker and the listener. If you are the speaker, share your ideas and writing so far. If you are the listener, ask questions and give feedback to help your partner improve their work.”
3–5 minutes: partner discussion
Repeat with 2–3 different partners.
“Revise your initial draft based on the feedback you got from your partners.”
2–3 minutes: independent work time
Student Facing
Here are four angles whose sizes you may have estimated earlier. A protractor has been placed over each angle. Measure the size of each angle in degrees.

Elena and Kiran are measuring an angle with a protractor. Elena says the angle is
\(80^\circ\)
. Kiran says it shows
\(100^\circ\)
. Why might they end up with different measurements? Which one is correct? Explain your reasoning.

Activity Synthesis
Select students who used different strategies to share their responses and reasoning.
Display the image of Elena and Kiran’s angle. If no students mentioned that
\(80^\circ\)
is not possible because the angle clearly appears greater than a right angle (
\(90^\circ\)
), consider asking how Elena can use what she knows about right angles to think about her measurement.
