Problem/activity:
You’re mixing ingredients for cookies. The recipe says to combine 6 tablespoons, or ¾ stick, of butter with 1 cup of sugar. You accidentally mix in a whole stick of butter (8 tablespoons) with the cup of sugar. How can you fix this?


Standard options: 
A. Understand the concept of a ratio and use ratio language to describe a ratio relationship between two quantities. For example, “The ratio of wings to beaks in the bird house at the zoo was 2:1, because for every 2 wings there was 1 beak.” “For every vote candidate A received, candidate C received nearly three votes.”
B. Use ratio and rate reasoning to solve real-world and mathematical problems, e.g., by reasoning about tables of equivalent ratios, tape diagrams, double number line diagrams, or equations.
C. Understand the concept of a unit rate a/b associated with a ratio a:b with b ≠0, and use rate language in the context of a ratio relationship. For example, “This recipe has a ratio of 3 cups of flour to 4 cups of sugar, so there is 3/4 cup of flour for each cup of sugar.” “We paid $75 for 15 hamburgers, which is a rate of $5 per hamburger.” (Expectations for unit rates in this grade are limited to non-complex fractions.)


Your response:
Thought: This problem solves a real-world problem involving mixing ingredients for cookies. A student doing this problem would need to reason about equivalent ratios of butter amounts to sugar amounts.
Answer: B

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

options: Use addition and subtraction within 20 to solve word problems involving situations of adding to, taking from, putting together, taking apart, and comparing, with unknowns in all positions, e.g., by using objects, drawings, and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.

Solve word problems that call for addition of three whole numbers whose sum is less than or equal to 20, e.g., by using objects, drawings, and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to discuss different ways to solve a three-addend story problem in which none of the addends can be combined to make 10 without being decomposed. Students solve the problem in a way that makes sense to them. Some students may build each number separately on the 10-frames and see both are filled. Some students may manipulate the numbers and think
\(8 + 7 + 5 = 8 + 2 + 5 + 5\)
. Different methods for solving are highlighted in the synthesis. It is important that the teacher represents student thinking, so that these methods are visible to all.
When students make sense of the story problems and connect the quantities in the story to an equation, they reason abstractly and quantitatively (MP2).
MLR6 Three Reads.
Keep books or devices closed. To launch this activity, display only the problem stem, without revealing the question. “We are going to read this story problem 3 times.” After the 1st Read: “Tell your partner what happened in the story.” After the 2nd Read: “What are all the things we can count in this story?” Reveal the question. After the 3rd Read: “What are different ways we can solve this problem?”

Groups of 2
Give students access to double 10-frames and connecting cubes or two-color counters.
Activity
Read the task statement.
4 minutes: independent work time
2 minutes: partner discussion
Monitor for students who:
place 8, 7, and 5 counters on the 10-frames and see that they are both full
count on
represent the problem as
\(8 + 2 + 5 + 5\)
use a known sum like
\(8 + 8\)
and then add 4 more.
