Task
Cruz and Erica were both getting ready for soccer.
Cruz ran 1 lap around the school.
Erica ran 3 laps around the playground.
Erica said,
I ran more laps, so I ran farther.
Cruz said,
4 laps around the school is 1 mile, but it takes 12 laps around the playground to go 1 mile. My laps are much longer, so I ran farther.
Who is right? Draw a picture to help you explain your answer.


Standard options: 
A. Explain why a fraction a/b is equivalent to a fraction (n × a)/(n × b) by using visual fraction models, with attention to how the number and size of the parts differ even though the two fractions themselves are the same size. Use this principle to recognize and generate equivalent fractions.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.
B. Compare two fractions with different numerators and different denominators, e.g., by creating common denominators or numerators, or by comparing to a benchmark fraction such as 1/2. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two fractions refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual fraction model.

Your response:
Thought: This task asks students to compare two fractions that are equal. The two fractions have different numerators and denominators (e.g. 1/4 and 3/12). The students need to explain why the two fractions are equal by drawing a picture, which involves using visual fraction models.
Answer: A, B

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

options: Write simple expressions that record calculations with numbers, and interpret numerical expressions without evaluating them. For example, express the calculation “add 8 and 7, then multiply by 2” as 2 × (8 + 7). Recognize that 3 × (18932 + 921) is three times as large as 18932 + 921, without having to calculate the indicated sum or product.

Use parentheses, brackets, or braces in numerical expressions, and evaluate expressions with these symbols.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Act 1: Watch the following video –
The Big Pad (Act: 1)
a.   What do you notice? What do you wonder?
b.   What is the area, in square centimeters, of the big pad? Make an estimate.
Problem 2
Act 2: Use the following information to solve -
The small pad is a square with a length of
$$7\frac{3}{5}$$
cm.
The big pad is also a square and has a length equal to
$$3\frac{2}{3}$$
small pads.
Problem 3
Act 3: Reveal the answer -
The area of the big pad is
$$776\frac{124}{225}$$
square centimeters. Was your answer reasonable? Why or why not?
Problem 4
Act 4 (the sequel): Look at the following image of the dimensions mentioned on the big pad -
[IMG]
Do these dimensions result in the same area as what we computed in Anchor Task #3? Why or why not?
