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?


Mathematical concept/skill options: 
A. Analyze proportional relationships and use them to solve real-world and mathematical problems.
B. Understand ratio concepts and use ratio reasoning to solve problems.


Your response, in json format:
{
  "explanation": "This problem focuses on the ratio between two ingredients. Students do not have to analyze proportional relationships in-depth, which is reserved for a higher grade level, but rather use ratios to find missing values.",
  "answer": "B"
}

Now, assign the following problem or activity to one or more relevant mathematical concepts/skills it teaches.

options: Represent and interpret data.

Measure and estimate lengths in standard units.

Geometric measurement: understand concepts of area and relate area to multiplication and to addition.

Convert like measurement units within a given measurement system.

Classify objects and count the number of objects in each category.

Describe and compare measurable attributes.

Geometric measurement: understand concepts of angle and measure angles.

Tell and write time.

Measure lengths indirectly and by iterating length units.

Work with time and money.

Solve problems involving measurement and estimation of intervals of time, liquid volumes, and masses of objects.

Geometric measurement: recognize perimeter as an attribute of plane figures and distinguish between linear and area measures.

Solve problems involving measurement and conversion of measurements from a larger unit to a smaller unit.

Relate addition and subtraction to length.

Geometric measurement: understand concepts of volume and relate volume to multiplication and to addition.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to write numbers between 95 and 120. Groups create posters that show a drawing of how they counted their animal measurements from the last activity. Groups should not write a number for the final measurement on the poster. Students do a gallery walk to interpret each representation and record the count with a number in their workbooks. Group members then compare their counts and written numbers.
When students look at the different representations and determine the length of each animal, they may notice that the representation may help to accurately find the value. For example, students may draw groups of 10 cubes rather than every individual cube (MP7).

Activity
MLR7 Compare and Connect
“Create a poster to show how you counted the cubes you used to measure the length of the animal in the measuring animals activity. Do not write the number of cubes your animal measured on your poster.”
5 minutes: group work time
“Now we will do a gallery walk to see different representations of your measurements. As you look at each poster, use the representation to determine the length of the animal. Write the number of cubes that represents its length in your book.”
7 minutes: gallery walk
Student Facing
For each animal, write the number of cubes that represent its length.
The beaver is ______________________ long.
The dog is ______________________ long.
The giant anteater is ______________________ long.
The raccoon is ______________________ long.
The red fox is ______________________ long.
The snake is ______________________ long.

Activity Synthesis
Display the snake and giant anteater posters.
“How do I write the number that represents the length of the snake?”
“Where do you see 100 in this poster? Where do you see 5?”
Repeat for giant anteater.
