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.


Concept/skill: 
Represent addition and subtraction with objects, fingers, mental images, drawings (Drawings need not show details, but should show the mathematics in the problem. (This applies wherever drawings are mentioned in the Standards.)), sounds (e.g., claps), acting out situations, verbal explanations, expressions, or equations.

Answer: 
Yes. This task involves representing addition with objects such as number cards and dice.

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

standard_description: Recognize angles as geometric shapes that are formed wherever two rays share a common endpoint, and understand concepts of angle measurement:
- An angle is measured with reference to a circle with its center at the common endpoint of the rays, by considering the fraction of the circular arc between the points where the two rays intersect the circle. An angle that turns through 1/360 of a circle is called a “one-degree angle,” and can be used to measure angles.
- An angle that turns through n one-degree angles is said to have an angle measure of n degrees.
problem_activity: Task
An important example of a model often used in biology or ecology to model
population growth is called the logistic growth model.  The general
form of the logistic equation is
$$
P(t) = \frac{KP_0e^{rt}}{K+P_0(e^{rt}-1)}.
$$
In this equation $t$ represents time, with $t = 0$ corresponding to when the population in question is first measured; $K,P_0$  and $r$ are all real numbers
with $K$ being called the ''carrying capacity'' while $r$ is a growth rate and
is normally a positive number.
Explain why the value $P_0$ represents
the  population when it is first measured.
Explain why, as time elapses, the population stabilizes, approaching the value $K$.
Explain how the behavior of $P$ changes if the growth rate $r$ is increased or decreased.
Below is the graph of a particular logistic function $P$, showing the growth of a
bacteria population.  Using the graph, identify $P_0$ and  $K$.
[IMG]
Using the values of $P_0$ and $K$ from the previous part, sketch the graph of the logistic function $Q$ given by
$$
Q(t) =  \frac{KP_0e^{2rt}}{K+P_0(e^{2rt}-1)}.
$$
Note that $Q$ is the same as $P$ except that the growth rate $r$ has been doubled.
