Concept/skill: 
Fluently add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to whole numbers less than or equal to 1,000,000.

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: 
No. This set of problems does not directly involve adding or subtracting multi-digit whole numbers. Instead, it focuses on multiplying multi-digit whole numbers.

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

standard_description: Interpret the equation y = mx + b as defining a linear function, whose graph is a straight line; give examples of functions that are not linear. For example, the function A = s2 giving the area of a square as a function of its side length is not linear because its graph contains the points (1,1), (2,4) and (3,9), which are not on a straight line.
problem_activity: Activity
In this warm-up, students make sense of a linear function with a negative rate of change, set in a familiar context. Students have seen similar relationships between the amount of water in a tank and time in an earlier unit (on solving and graphing equations). Here, they think about the quantities in terms of input and output, interpret statements in function notation, and sketch a graph of the function.
The work here prepares students to find and interpret the inverse of functions written in function notation, and to use inverse functions to solve problems.
Launch
Arrange students in groups of 2. Provide access to scientific or four-function calculators, if requested.
Student Facing
A tank contained some water. The function
\(w\)
represents the relationship between
\(t\)
, time in minutes, and the amount of water in the tank in liters. The equation
\(w(t) = 80 - 2.5t\)
defines this function.
Discuss with a partner:
How is the water in the tank changing? Be as specific as possible.
What does
\(w(t)\)
represent? Is
\(w(t)\)
the input or the output of this function?
Sketch a graph of the function. Be sure to label the axes.

Activity Synthesis
Select students to share their responses, including their graph.
Make sure students recall that in an equation such as
\(w(t)=80-2.5t\)
,
\(w(t)\)
is the output when the input is
\(t\)
, that they can interpret the equation in terms of the situation, and see why the graph is a downward-slanting line.
