Problem/activity:
Task
Cruz and Erica were both getting ready for soccer.
Cruz ran 1 lap around the school.
Erica ran 3 laps around the playground.
Erica said,
I ran more laps, so I ran farther.
Cruz said,
4 laps around the school is 1 mile, but it takes 12 laps around the playground to go 1 mile. My laps are much longer, so I ran farther.
Who is right? Draw a picture to help you explain your answer.


Concept/skill: 
Explain why a fraction a/b is equivalent to a fraction (n × a)/(n × b) by using visual fraction models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate equivalent fractions.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.

Answer: 
Yes. This task asks students to compare two fractions that are equal. The students need to explain why the two fractions are equal by drawing a picture, which involves using visual fraction models.

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

standard_description: Use multiplication and division within 100 to solve word problems in situations involving equal groups, arrays, and measurement quantities, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to facilitate the Notice and Wonder they created in the previous activity. Each group takes turns facilitating their Notice and Wonder for another group (or two groups, if time permits).
MLR8 Discussion Supports.
During group work, invite students to take turns sharing their responses. Ask students to restate what they heard using precise mathematical language and their own words. Display the sentence frame: “I heard you say . . .” Original speakers can agree or clarify for their partner.
Advances: Listening, Speaking
Required Materials
Materials to Gather
Chart paper
Markers
Required Preparation
Each group of 3-4 from the previous activity needs 1 piece of chart paper and a marker.
Launch
Groups of 3–4 from the previous activity
Give each group a piece of chart paper and a marker to record responses.
“Now, work with another group and take turns facilitating the Notice and Wonder activity you created.”
Activity
10–12 minutes: small–group work time
Remind groups to switch roles after 5–6 minutes.
Student Facing
Display your image for your classmates.
Ask them, “What do you notice? What do you wonder?”
Give them a minute to discuss together.
Ask them to share what they notice and wonder.
Record their ideas.

Activity Synthesis
“What did you learn as you facilitated your Notice and Wonder?” (Others might notice or wonder things we did not think of. Recording the ideas helps people understand what is being shared.)
