Example:
Concept/skill: 
Recognize and represent proportional relationships between quantities.

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?


Answer: 
No. Usually problems that teach recognizing and representing proportional relationships between quantities involve deciding whether two quantities are in a proportional relationship or identifying the constant of proportionality, and then representing proportional relationships by equations or explaining proportional relationship using coordinate graphs.

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

6
standard_description: Fluently multiply and divide within 100, using strategies such as the relationship between multiplication and division (e.g., knowing that 8 × 5 = 40, one knows 40 ÷ 5 = 8) or properties of operations. By the end of Grade 3, know from memory all products of two one-digit numbers.

Grid paper
Inch tiles
Materials to Copy
Blackline Masters
Can You Build It Stage 2 Directions
Number Cards (0-10)

Narrative
Before playing, students remove the cards that show 6 or higher and set them aside.
Students flip two number cards to get a number of tiles and then each partner tries to create as many rectangles as possible for that area. If both students each found all the rectangles, they get one point. A student gets two points for any rectangle they built that their partner did not. The player who gets the most points after eight rounds is the winner. Students may choose to draw their rectangle on grid paper, rather than use inch tiles.
This center stage is the first time Number Cards 0–10 are used in Grade 4, so they are provided as a blackline master. Students will continue to use these throughout the year. Consider copying them on cardstock or laminating them and keeping them organized to be used repeatedly.
Additional Information
Each group of 2 needs at least 120 inch tiles and a set of number cards.
