 Narrative
 The first partner spins to get a group of coins. They write a question that compares the amount they spun to a different group of coins that they make up.

Concept/skill: 
Use addition and subtraction within 100 to solve one- and two-step word problems involving situations of adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all positions, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.

Answer: 
No. This activity does not involve addition or subtraction, or unknowns in different positions of equations or drawings.

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

standard_description: Apply and extend previous understandings of addition and subtraction to add and subtract rational numbers; represent addition and subtraction on a horizontal or vertical number line diagram.
problem_activity: Problem 1
A new park is being built in the city. In the park, there will be a cemented walkway that will wind through the park. The walkway will be completely enclosed by a short, gated fence that will line the path on all sides of the path. The blueprint for the pathway is shown in the coordinate plane below. Each square unit in the coordinate grid represents 1 square yard.

a.   The city budget includes enough funds to include 50 square yards of cement and 60 yards of fencing. Will the budget cover the necessary expenses for cement and fencing? Defend your answer.
b.   Two statues will be placed at points
$${(-1, 2)}$$
and
$${(-1, -4).}$$
How far apart, in yards, are the two statues?
Problem 2
You are responsible for a small plot of land in the community garden that measures
