few_shots: 
Example 1:
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.

Example 2:
Concept/skill: 
Understand a fraction as a number on the number line; represent fractions on a number line diagram.
 Grade 3 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8.

Problem/activity:
Task
 Arrange the fractions in order from least to greatest. Explain your answer with a picture.
 $\frac{1}{5}, \frac{1}{7}, \frac{1}{3} $
 $\frac{2}{5}, \frac{2}{7}, \frac{2}{3} $
 $\frac{5}{6}, \frac{3}{6}, \frac{1}{6} $
 $\frac{5}{12}, \frac{8}{12}, \frac{4}{12} $

Answer: 
No. Completing this task does not involve representing fractions on a number line diagram.

Example 3:
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: Write a function defined by an expression in different but equivalent forms to reveal and explain different properties of the function.
problem_activity: Warm-up
In this warm-up, students are prompted to compare function values. To do so, they need to interpret statements in function notation and connect their interpretations to the graph of the function.
Previously, students recognized that if a point with coordinates
\((2,20)\)
is on the graph of a function, the 2 is an input and the 20 is a corresponding output. Here, they begin to see the second value in a coordinate pair more abstractly, as
\(f(2)\)
when the input is 2, or as
\(f(4)\)
when the input is 4.
Launch
Give students 1–2 minutes of quiet think time. Follow with a whole-class discussion.
Some students might be unfamiliar with drones. If needed, give a brief explanation of what they are.
Student Facing
[IMG]
Here is a graph that represents function
\(f\)
, which gives the height of a drone, in meters,
\(t\)
seconds after it leaves the ground.
[IMG]
Decide which function value is greater.
\(f(0)\)
or
\(f(4)\)
\(f(2)\)
or
\(f(5)\)
\(f(3)\)
or
\(f(7)\)
\(f(t)\)
or
\(f(t+1)\)

Activity Synthesis
Invite students to share how they compared each pair of outputs. If not mentioned in students’ explanations, point out that for each pair, what we are comparing are the vertical values of the points on the graph at different horizontal values. Even though the statements don’t tell us the values of, say
\(f(3)\)
and
\(f(7)\)
, and the vertical axis shows no scale, we can tell from the graph that the function has a greater value when
\(t\)
is 3 than when
\(t\)
is 7.
Tell students that the coordinates
\((0, f(0))\)
represent the starting point of the drone. Ask students, “What are the coordinates of the points when the drone starts leveling off? When it starts to descend? When it lands?” (
\((2, f(2)), (5,f(5))\)
, and
\((7,f(7))\)
, respectively.)
Highlight that the coordinates of each point on a graph of a function are
\((x, f(x))\)
.
Discuss with students how they compared
\(f(t)\)
and
\(f(t+1)\)
(in the last question). Make sure students see that the
\(f(t+1)\)
could be less than, equal to, or greater than
\(f(t)\)
, depending on the value of
\(t\)
.
If
\(t\)
is 2, then
\(t+1\)
is 3. From the graph, we can see that
\(f(2)\)
is equal to
\(f(3)\)
because the graph has the same vertical value when
\(t\)
is 2 and 3.
If
\(t\)
is 5, then
\(t+1\)
is 6. From the graph, we can see that
\(f(5)\)
is greater than
\(f(6)\)
because the graph has a greater vertical value when
\(t\)
is 5 than when
\(t\)
is 6.
