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 generate two patterns from rules and then graph them on the coordinate grid. Students first identify a point on the coordinate grid with one of the pairs of numbers from the patterns and then plot the rest of the points. Students may notice that the points on the graph are regularly spaced. They are invited to share this and other observations in the synthesis.
MLR8 Discussion Supports.
Display sentence frames to support partner discussion: “First, I _____ because . . .” and “I noticed _____ so I . . . .”

Activity Synthesis
“How did you decide where to place the points on the grid?” (I used the top row to decide how far over to go on the horizontal axis and the second rule to decide how far up to go on the vertical axis.)
Invite students to share completed graphs for parts A and B.
“How are the two graphs the same?” (There is a point at the bottom left,
\((0,0)\)
, on each. The points are regularly spaced and go up and to the right. They all lie at the intersection of gridlines.)
“How are the two graphs different?” (The numbers on the axes are different. The ones for partner B get bigger really quickly.)
