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?


Standard options: 
A. Add, subtract, multiply, and divide decimals to hundredths, using concrete models or drawings and strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction; relate the strategy to a written method and explain the reasoning used.
B. Find whole-number quotients of whole numbers with up to four-digit dividends and two-digit divisors, using strategies based on place value, the properties of operations, and/or the relationship between multiplication and division. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.
C. Fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.


Your response:
Thought: This set of problems involves multi-digit whole numbers because the numbers in each problem are four and two digit integers, and the mathematical calculations involved in both problems focus on multiplication. The first problem explicitly asks the student to solve its subproblems using the standard algorithm.
Answer: C

Now, assign the following problem or activity to one or more relevant standards it aligns with.

options: Classify two-dimensional figures based on the presence or absence of parallel or perpendicular lines, or the presence or absence of angles of a specified size. Recognize right triangles as a category, and identify right triangles.

Recognize a line of symmetry for a two-dimensional figure as a line across the figure such that the figure can be folded along the line into matching parts. Identify line-symmetric figures and draw lines of symmetry.

Draw points, lines, line segments, rays, angles (right, acute, obtuse), and perpendicular and parallel lines. Identify these in two-dimensional figures.
problem_activity: Narrative
In this activity, students are given the result of folding a shape along one or more lines of symmetry and asked to reason about the original shape. No lines of symmetry are specified, so students must consider all sides of a folded shape as a possible line of symmetry and visualize the missing half accordingly.
The first question offers opportunities to practice choosing tools strategically (MP5). Some students may wish to trace the half-shapes on patty paper, to make cutouts of them, or to use other tools or techniques to reason about the original shape. Provide access to the materials and tools they might need.
During the activity synthesis, discuss the different ways students approach the second question. Consider preparing cutouts of shapes A–F to facilitate the discussion. (The shapes are provided in the blackline master.)
Action and Expression: Internalize Executive Functions.
Invite students to plan a strategy, including the tools they will use, for the task. If time allows, invite students to share their plan with a partner before they begin.

Activity
5 minutes: independent work time
2–3 minutes: partner discussion
Monitor for the different strategies students use to identify the original shape of the half-shapes (as noted in the activity narrative).
Student Facing
Mai has a piece of paper. She can get two different shapes by folding the paper along a line of symmetry. What is the shape of the paper before it was folded?
[IMG]
Diego folded a piece of paper once along a line of symmetry and got this right triangle.

Which shapes could the paper have before it was folded? Explain or show how you know.

Activity Synthesis
Invite students to share their responses and strategies.
When discussing the second question, ask students why B, C, and E are not possible shapes of the original piece of paper even though there’s a line that breaks each figure into two right triangles that match the given triangle. (B and E have no line symmetry. C has lines of symmetry but not diagonally from corner to corner. If you fold there, the triangles would not be on top of one another.)
