Example:
Concept/skill: 
Solve addition and subtraction word problems, and add and subtract within 10, e.g., by using objects or drawings to represent the problem.

Problem/activity:
Task
Materials
One 10-frame per pair of students (see example below)
[IMG]
Counters, 10 per pair of students
Decks of number cards 0-5 (with 4 of each number) or two 0-5 dice
Setup
This activity is done in pairs. The students sit side by side with 10-frame and deck of cards or dice. If they have cards, the cards are shuffled and placed face down in front of them.
Action
Player 1 flips a card or rolls the die. They place that many counters on the 10-frame. Player 2 flips a card or rolls the die. They place that many more counters on the 10-frame next to the counters already on the ten frame. The students count the total together.
A recording sheet can be added when the students have been introduced to equations and number sentences. For those students who can handle higher numbers, a deck of 0-10 cards and two 10-frames can be used.
This game can also be played alone.


Answer: 
No. Though this task involves addition, it does not involve any word problems.

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

standard_description: Give an informal argument using Cavalieri’s principle for the formulas for the volume of a sphere and other solid figures.
problem_activity: Activity
In later lessons, students will encounter situations in which they need to figure out if they have enough information to be sure two triangles are similar, based on angle measure alone. This activity introduces that concept as students grapple with whether the given information is enough to figure out that at least two pairs of corresponding angles are congruent.
Students will need to use their knowledge of the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem to figure out the third angle in each triangle.
Launch
Speaking, Reading: MLR5 Co-Craft Questions.
Use this routine to increase awareness of the language used to talk about the features of similar triangles. Before revealing the questions in this activity, display the image of both triangles. Ask students to write down possible mathematical questions that could be asked about the image. Invite students to compare their questions before revealing the actual questions. Listen for and amplify any questions about the features of both triangles. For example, “Are the triangles similar?”, “What are the values of
\(x\)
and
\(y\)
?”, and “What are the measures of the missing angles?”
Design Principle(s): Maximize meta-awareness; Support sense-making

Here are 2 triangles. One triangle has a 60 degree angle and a 40 degree angle. The other triangle has a 40 degree angle and an 80 degree angle.

\(x\)
and
\(y\)

Anticipated Misconceptions
If students are struggling unproductively, ask them to share what’s hard about this problem. (I’m stuck because I don’t have two pairs of corresponding angles.) Then ask them if it’s possible to find another corresponding angle using the information provided. (Yes, using the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem to figure out the third angle and check if the third pair of angles might be congruent.)
Activity Synthesis
The key idea is that the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem allows us to use the Angle-Angle Triangle Similarity Theorem even when we haven’t been given two pairs of congruent corresponding angles. Invite students to explain how they could tell the triangles were similar.
