 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.

standard_description: Interpret the parameters in a linear or exponential function in terms of a context.
problem_activity: 1. A youth group has a yard sale to raise money for a charity. The group earns $800 but decides to put its money in the bank for a while. The group considers two different banks:
Cool Bank pays simple interest at a rate of 4%, and the youth group plans to leave the money in the bank for 3 years.
Hot Bank pays an interest rate of 3% compounded annually, and the youth group plans to leave the money in the bank for 5 years.
Write a function to represent the amount of money earned at each bank. Then determine how much money the youth group would earn in each situation.
2. If the youth group needs the money quickly, which is the better choice? Explain your reasoning.
