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.


Standard options: 
A. Represent addition and subtraction with objects, fingers, mental images, drawings (Drawings need not show details, but should show the mathematics in the problem. (This applies wherever drawings are mentioned in the Standards.)), sounds (e.g., claps), acting out situations, verbal explanations, expressions, or equations.
B. For any number from 1 to 9, find the number that makes 10 when added to the given number, e.g., by using objects or drawings, and record the answer with a drawing or equation.
C. Decompose numbers less than or equal to 10 into pairs in more than one way, e.g., by using objects or drawings, and record each decomposition by a drawing or equation (e.g., 5 = 2 + 3 and 5 = 4 + 1).
D. Solve addition and subtraction word problems, and add and subtract within 10, e.g., by using objects or drawings to represent the problem.
E. Fluently add and subtract within 5.

K
options: Solve real-world and mathematical problems by graphing points in all four quadrants of the coordinate plane. Include use of coordinates and absolute value to find distances between points with the same first coordinate or the same second coordinate.

Understand a rational number as a point on the number line. Extend number line diagrams and coordinate axes familiar from previous grades to represent points on the line and in the plane with negative number coordinates.

Understand ordering and absolute value of rational numbers.

Understand that positive and negative numbers are used together to describe quantities having opposite directions or values (e.g., temperature above/below zero, elevation above/below sea level, credits/debits, positive/negative electric charge); use positive and negative numbers to represent quantities in real-world contexts, explaining the meaning of 0 in each situation.
problem_activity: Activity
Students reason abstractly and quantitatively about temperatures over time graphed on coordinate axes (MP2). The goal of this activity is for students to use inequalities to describe the location of points on a coordinate grid in one direction. This activity also introduces the idea of vertical difference on the coordinate plane using a familiar context. Students may use previous strategies such as counting squares, but are not expected to explicitly add or subtract using negative numbers.
Launch
Arrange students in groups of 2. Allow students 3–4 minutes of quiet work time and 1–2 minutes to check results with their partner. Follow with a whole-class discussion.
Engagement: Develop Effort and Persistence.
Connect a new concept to one with which students have experienced success. For example, remind students about the sea levels and elevation number line representations.
Supports accessibility for: Social-emotional skills; Conceptual processing

The coordinate plane shows the high and low temperatures in Nome, Alaska over a period of 8 days. The axis labeled
\(T\)
represents temperatures in degrees Fahrenheit. The axis labeled
\(d\)
represents the day.
[IMG]
What was the warmest high temperature?
Write an inequality to describe the high temperatures,
\(H\)
, over the 8-day period.
What was the coldest low temperature?
Write an inequality to describe the low temperatures,
\(L\)
, over the 8-day period.
On which day(s) did the
largest
difference between the high and low temperatures occur? Write down this difference.
On which day(s) did the
smallest
difference between the high and low temperatures occur? Write down this difference.

Before doing this problem, do the problem about taxicab distance in an earlier lesson.
The point
\((0,3)\)
is 4 taxicab units away from
\((\text{-}4,3)\)
and 4 taxicab units away from
\((2,1)\)
.
Find as many other points as you can that are 4 taxicab units away from
both
\((\text{-}4,3)\)
and
\((2,1)\)
.
Are there any points that are 3 taxicab units away from both points?

Anticipated Misconceptions
Because the high temperature on day 7 was positive and the low temperature was negative, some students may not notice that the difference was 10 degrees on this day as well. Consider prompting them to use tracing paper to compare the temperature differences on days 6 and 7.
Activity Synthesis
This discussion should lead to two key takeaways. First, students express the range of values for the low and high temperatures using inequalities. Second, students share strategies for finding a difference between two values on the coordinate plane.
Ask students to share their inequalities for
\(H\)
and
\(L\)
. It is expected that students have inequalities that describe the maximum high temperature for
\(H\)
and the minimum low temperature for
\(L\)
, but the discussion should bring out that each variable has 4 statements that capture its possible values:
\(L>\text-3\)
,
\(L=\text-3\)
,
\(L < 26\)
, and
\(L=26\)
for the variable
\(L\)
and
\(H>2\)
,
\(H=2\)
,
\(H < 28\)
, and
\(H=28\)
for the variable
\(H\)
.
Ask students to share their strategies for finding the vertical distance between points. Push them to explain how they took the scale of the vertical axis into account. Invite students to explain how they used the context to make sense of their answers.
Listening, Speaking: MLR8 Discussion Supports.
To support students in producing statements about details in the inequalities, provide sentence frames for students to use when they explain their reasoning to their peers, such as: “This inequality should/should not also be equal to because _____”, “A situation uses an equal sign when _____”, “I know that the inequality _____ is correct because _____.”
Design Principle(s): Support sense-making
