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.


Mathematical concept/skill options: 
A. Build fractions from unit fractions by applying and extending previous understandings of operations on whole numbers.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.
B. Extend understanding of fraction equivalence and ordering.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.
C. Use equivalent fractions as a strategy to add and subtract fractions.
D. Develop Understanding of fractions as numbers.
Grade 3 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8.
E. Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division to multiply and divide fractions.
F. Understand decimal notation for fractions, and compare decimal fractions.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.


Your response:
Thought: In this problem, students learn to recognize equivalent fractions. That is, three laps around the playground is 3/12 mile, which is equivalent to 1/4, which is one lap around the school.
Answer: B

problem_activity: Narrative
This warm-up prompts students to carefully analyze and compare quadrilaterals and their sides. When students make comparisons, they have a reason to use geometric language precisely (MP6). The activity also enables the teacher to hear the terminology students know and how they talk about characteristics of two-dimensional figures. The knowledge and ideas that students show here may also be insightful to teachers in the next lesson, when students learn about angles.

Activity Synthesis
“How might we know if the sides of a figure are parallel?” (We could extend the lines or measure to see if the two sides are always the same distance apart.)
“All four quadrilaterals have at least one pair of parallel sides. Do all quadrilaterals have at least one pair of parallel sides?” (No) “Can you draw one with no pairs of parallel sides?”
