Example 1:
Problem/activity:
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: 
Solve addition and subtraction word problems, and add and subtract within 10, e.g., by using objects or drawings to represent the problem.

Answer: 
No. Though this task involves addition, it does not involve any word problems.

Example 2:
Problem/activity:
For each pair of numbers, determine if the values are equivalent. Explain your reasoning for each one.
a.
$$-0.25$$
and
$$\frac{1}{-4}$$
b.
$$-\left ( \frac{1}{4} \right )$$
and
$$\frac{-1}{-4}$$
c.
$$\frac{-1}{4}$$
and
$$-\frac{1}{4}$$


Concept/skill: 
Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication to multiply a fraction or whole number by a fraction.

Answer: 
No. The expressions shown in this problem do not involve multiplying fractions with other fractions, nor whole numbers with fractions.

Example 3:
Problem/activity:
Find the general solution for:
$${\mathrm{cos}\left({\pi\over2}+x\right)=\mathrm{tan}{\pi\over4}}$$


Concept/skill: 
Understand that by similarity, side ratios in right triangles are properties of the angles in the triangle, leading to definitions of trigonometric ratios for acute angles.

Answer: 
No. This problem does not directly teach how side ratios in right triangles lead to definitions of trigonometric ratios. Instead, it involves solving a trigonometric function.

standard_description: Find the conjugate of a complex number; use conjugates to find moduli and quotients of complex numbers.
problem_activity: Task
For this task, the letter $i$ denotes the imaginary unit, that is, $i=\sqrt{-1}$.
For each integer $k$ from 0 to 8, write $i^k$ in the form $a+bi$.
Describe the pattern you observe, and algebraically prove your observation.  In particular, simplify $i^{195}$.
Write each of the following expression in the form $a+bi$:
$i^2 + i + 1$
$i^3 + i^2 + i +1$
$i^4 + i^3 + i^2 + i +1$
$i^5 + i^4 + i^3 + i^2 + i +1$
$i^6 + i^5 + i^4 + i^3 + i^2 + i +1$
$i^7 + i^6 + i^5 + i^4 + i^3 + i^2 + i +1$
$i^8 + i^7 + i^6 + i^5 + i^4 + i^3 + i^2 + i +1$
Describe the pattern you observe, and algebraically prove your observation.  In particular, compute
$$
i^{195}+i^{194}+\cdots+i^2+i+1.
$$


aligns: yes
