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:
Task
 Arrange the fractions in order from least to greatest. Explain your answer with a picture.
 $\frac{1}{5}, \frac{1}{7}, \frac{1}{3} $
 $\frac{2}{5}, \frac{2}{7}, \frac{2}{3} $
 $\frac{5}{6}, \frac{3}{6}, \frac{1}{6} $
 $\frac{5}{12}, \frac{8}{12}, \frac{4}{12} $

Concept/skill: 
Understand a fraction as a number on the number line; represent fractions on a number line diagram.
 Grade 3 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8.

Answer: 
No. Completing this task does not involve representing fractions on a number line diagram.

Example 3:
Problem/activity:
Problem 1
Solve using the standard algorithm. If you get stuck, use an area model and/or the partial products algorithm to help. Then assess the reasonableness of your answer.
a.
$$5,803\times46$$
b.
$$63\times2,116$$
Problem 2
Dunkin' introduced a croissant doughnut in 2014. In the first three months of its debut, they sold 7,870 dozen of them per day. How many croissant doughnuts were sold in the first three months?


Concept/skill: 
Fluently add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to whole numbers less than or equal to 1,000,000.

Answer: 
No. This set of problems does not directly involve adding or subtracting multi-digit whole numbers. Instead, it focuses on multiplying multi-digit whole numbers.

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.

Look at the title and image of the Newsweek article,
More Than Half of Medical Advice on 'Dr. Oz' Lacks Proof or Contradicts Best Available Science: Study
.
According to this article, a research team looked at 80 pieces of medical advice from
The Dr. Oz Show
and found no evidence to support 43 of these recommendations.
a.   Do you agree or disagree with the claim in the headline based on this information? Why or why not?
b.   Determine whether the following fractions are greater or less than
$$\frac12$$
.
$$\frac{5}{12}$$
$$\frac35$$
Problem 2
a.   Ishmael says that he knows
$$\frac{5}{12}$$
is less than
$$\frac35$$
because
$$\frac{5}{12}$$
is less than
$$\frac12 $$
and
$$\frac35$$
is more than
$$\frac12$$
, so
$$\frac{5}{12}$$
must be less than
$$\frac35$$
. Explain why Ishmael’s reasoning is correct using words or pictures.
b.   Use Ishmael’s strategy to compare the following pairs of fractions. Record your answer with
$$\lt$$
,
$$\gt$$
, or
$$=$$
.
$${{4\over10}}$$
and
$${{5\over8}}$$
$${{7\over12}}$$
and
$${{4\over9}}$$
$${{1\over3}}$$
and
$${{4\over7}}$$
Problem 3
a.   Now Joslyn is comparing
$$\frac46$$
and
$$\frac58$$
. She says that she knows
$$\frac46$$
is more than
$$\frac58$$
because
$$\frac46$$
is
$$\frac16$$
more than
$$\frac12$$
and
$$\frac58$$
is
$$\frac18$$
more than
$$\frac12$$
and
$$\frac16$$
is more than
$$\frac18$$
. Explain why Jocelyn’s reasoning is correct using words or pictures.
b.   Use any strategy to compare the following pairs of fractions. Record your answer with
$$\lt$$
,
$$\gt$$
, or
$$=$$
.
$$\frac{5}{12}$$
and
$${{4\over10}}$$
$${{3\over5}}$$
and
$${{5\over9}}$$
$${{1\over3}}$$
and
$${{3\over7}}$$
