Concept/skill: 
Fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.

Problem/activity:
Problem 1
Solve using the standard algorithm. If you get stuck, use an area model and/or the partial products algorithm to help. Then assess the reasonableness of your answer.
a.
$$5,803\times46$$
b.
$$63\times2,116$$
Problem 2
Dunkin' introduced a croissant doughnut in 2014. In the first three months of its debut, they sold 7,870 dozen of them per day. How many croissant doughnuts were sold in the first three months?


Answer: 
Yes. This set of problems involves multi-digit whole numbers because the numbers in each problem are four and two digit integers, and the mathematical calculations involved in both problems focus on multiplication. The first problem explicitly asks the student to solve its subproblems using the standard algorithm.

Now, assess whether the following problem or activity is 'aligned' with the given Common Core standard in Mathematics.

standard_description: Know and apply the properties of integer exponents to generate equivalent numerical expressions. For example, 3^(2) × 3^(–5) = 3^(–3) = 1/3^(3) = 1/27.
problem_activity: Activity
The purpose of this activity is to extend the definition of exponents to include negative exponents. The meaning of zero exponents is also revisited. When students use tables to explore expressions with negative exponents, they are noticing and making use of structure (MP7).
Launch
Arrange students in groups of 2. Tell students to work on their own and then share their reasoning with their partner after each has had a chance to complete the problem. Follow with a whole-class discussion.

Activity Synthesis
Display the completed table, and resolve any questions students have. Questions for discussion:
“How would you make sense of
\(2^{\text-6}\)
?” (I know
\(2^{\text-5}=\frac{1}{32}\)
, and I know that
\(2^{\text-6}\)
would be the result of multiplying by another
\(\frac12\)
. So,
\(2^{\text-6} = \frac{1}{64}\)
.
“How could we figure out the value of
\(7^{\text-2}\)
?” (Possible response: We could rewrite it as
\(\frac{7^0}{7^2}\)
, and then
\(\frac{1}{49}\)
.


aligns: yes
