few_shots: Example 1:
Problem/activity:
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.

problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to ask and answer questions using their bar graphs from a previous activity. Students work with the group they collected survey data with to create questions that can be answered with their bar graphs. Then students are paired up with a new partner to use these questions to practice solving one- and two-step “how many more” and “how many fewer” problems using information presented in scaled bar graphs (MP2).
MLR8 Discussion Supports.
Prior to solving the problems, invite students to make sense of the bar graphs and take turns sharing their understanding with their partner. Listen for and clarify any questions about the context.
Advances: Speaking, Representing
Required Materials
Materials to Gather
Materials from a previous activity
Required Preparation
Each group needs the bar graphs they created in the previous activity.
Launch
Groups of 4
“Work with your group to complete these sentences to write questions that could be answered with your bar graph.”
5–7 minutes: small-group work time
Have each group share one of their questions and how they came up with the question.
Activity
Groups of 2
Be sure students have a partner that wasn’t in their group in the previous activity.
“Use your partner's graph to answer the questions your partner wrote. They’ll answer your questions while you’re answering theirs. Then you’ll spend a few minutes checking each other’s work.”
7–10 minutes: partner work time
Have students switch partners again and repeat as time permits.
Student Facing
Write questions that could be answered with your bar graph by completing these sentences.
How many more students liked ___________________________
than ___________________________ ?
How many fewer students liked ___________________________than
