 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: Perform operations with numbers expressed in scientific notation, including problems where both decimal and scientific notation are used. Use scientific notation and choose units of appropriate size for measurements of very large or very small quantities (e.g., use millimeters per year for seafloor spreading). Interpret scientific notation that has been generated by technology.
problem_activity: Activity
In this activity, students practice making connections between different representations of the same situation. If desired, they can also identify and create any missing representations (this would require removing some cards from the sets you distribute). The practice will be helpful when students make connections between verbal and tabular representations in the associated Algebra 1 lesson. A matching task gives students opportunities to analyze representations, statements, and structures closely and make connections (MP7).
Launch
Arrange students in groups of 2. Distribute 1 set of slips from the blackline master to each group. (A complete set if students will only do the matching. A set that is missing a few cards if you would like for students to create some representations.)
Student Facing
Your teacher will give you a set of cards. Each card has either a verbal description, a table, or a graph. Find the three cards that represent the same situation. If one of the three representations for a situation is missing, use the blank cards to create that representation.

Activity Synthesis
Select groups to share their matches and how they determined which verbal descriptions, tables, and graphs were a match. Look for groups that created different representations for the missing ones. Attend to the language that students use to describe their matching representations, giving them opportunities to describe them more precisely.
