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

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
$$-\frac{1}{4}$$


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

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

standard_description: Write numbers from 0 to 20. Represent a number of objects with a written numeral 0-20 (with 0 representing a count of no objects).
problem_activity: Stage 1: Numbers to 10
Required Preparation
Materials to Gather
Colored pencils, crayons, or markers
Connecting cubes
Materials to Copy
Blackline Masters
Number Mat 1-10
Number Race Stage 1 Recording Sheet for Writing
Number Race Stage 1 Recording Sheet for Tracing

Narrative
Students take turns rolling a connecting cube onto a number mat and write the number (1–10) 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.
