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 multiply multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.

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: 
Yes. This set of problems involves multi-digit whole numbers because the numbers in each problem are four and two digit integers, and the mathematical calculations involved in both problems focus on multiplication. The first problem explicitly asks the student to solve its subproblems using the standard algorithm.

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

standard_description: Develop a probability distribution for a random variable defined for a sample space in which probabilities are assigned empirically; find the expected value. For example, find a current data distribution on the number of TV sets per household in the United States, and calculate the expected number of sets per household. How many TV sets would you expect to find in 100 randomly selected households?
problem_activity: Narrative
In this activity, students are given expressions that represent strategies for finding the area of rectangles. The strategies are based on the distributive property and the associative property of multiplication. Students interpret the expressions by marking or shading area diagrams and connect each expression to the product of two factors (MP2). For instance, they see that to find the value of
\(2 \times (2 \times 6)\)
is to find the value of
\(4 \times 6\)
or
\(6 \times 4\)
.
MLR8 Discussion Supports:
Synthesis: Create a visual display of the diagrams. As students share their strategies, annotate the display to illustrate connections. For example, trace the area showing 5 columns of 3, and write
\(5 \times 3\)
.
Advances: Speaking, Representing
Engagement: Provide Access by Recruiting Interest.
Leverage choice around perceived challenge. Invite students to select at least 2 of the 3 problems to complete.
Supports accessibility for: Organization, Attention, Social-emotional skills

Materials to Gather
Colored pencils, crayons, or markers
Launch
Groups of 2
“Take a minute to read the directions of the activity. Then, talk to your partner about what you are asked to do.”
1 minute: quiet think time
1 minute: partner discussion
Answer any clarifying questions from students.
Give students access to colored pencils, crayons, or markers.
Activity
“Mark or shade each diagram to represent how each student found the area.”
3–5 minutes: independent work time
“Share with your partner how you used the rectangles to show each expression.”
3–5 minutes: partner discussion
Student Facing
Here are some rectangles and expressions that show how three students saw the area of the rectangles.
Noah
[IMG]
\((5\times 3)+(2 \times 3)\)
Priya
[IMG]
\(2 \times (2 \times 6)\)
Tyler
[IMG]
\((5 \times 8) + (3 \times 8)\)
For each rectangle:
Name the two factors that can be multiplied to find its area.
Mark or shade each rectangle to show how each student saw the area. Be prepared to explain your reasoning.

Activity Synthesis
“What are the two factors you can multiply to find the area of Noah’s rectangle?” (7 and 3)
“How are those numbers related to the expression that he wrote:
\((5\times 3)+(2 \times 3)\)
?”  (
\(7 \times 3\)
is 21. Finding
\(5\times3\)
, which is 15, then adding
\(2\times3\)
, which is 6, also gives 21.)
“Where do you see the two factors in his expression?” (The 7 is 5 and 2 combined. The 3 is in the
\(5 \times 3\)
and
\(2 \times 3\)
.)
Repeat the line of questioning with Priya’s rectangle and expression.
