Example:
Concept/skill: 
Compare two decimals to hundredths by reasoning about their size. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two decimals refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with the symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual model.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.

Problem/activity:
Task
Cruz and Erica were both getting ready for soccer.
Cruz ran 1 lap around the school.
Erica ran 3 laps around the playground.
Erica said,
I ran more laps, so I ran farther.
Cruz said,
4 laps around the school is 1 mile, but it takes 12 laps around the playground to go 1 mile. My laps are much longer, so I ran farther.

Answer: 
No. This task does not involve comparing decimals to hundredths. Instead, it involves fraction comparisons.

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

standard_description: Understand the relationship between numbers and quantities; connect counting to cardinality.
problem_activity: Stage 2: Numbers 11 - 20
Required Preparation
Materials to Gather
Colored pencils, crayons, or markers
Connecting cubes
Materials to Copy
Blackline Masters
Number Mat 11–20
Number Race Stage 2 Recording Sheet for Writing
Number Race Stage 2 Recording Sheet for Tracing

Narrative
Students take turns rolling a connecting cube onto a number mat and write the number (11–20) they land on, on the recording sheet. Students may want to use colored pencils to write the numbers.
Variation:
Students may use the blackline master that allows them to trace each number to support their number writing skills.
Additional Information
Each group of 2 needs 1 connecting cube.
