Determine whether an equation with quantities less than 100 is true or false.
Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Use manipulatives to represent the values on both sides of the equation.
  • Use manipulatives to compute each side of the equation.
  • Identify the relationship (i.e., same, different, equal, not equal) between values on both sides to determine if the equation is true or false. (2 + 5 = 3 + 4).
Representation:
  • Compute the value for each side of an equation.
  • Compare the value of each side of the equation to determine its relationship (i.e., equal, not equal).
  • Understand that an equation where the values are equal is true and if values are not equal means the statement is false.
  • Understand the following concepts, symbols, and vocabulary: equality, equations, greater than, less than.

Cluster: Use the four operations with whole numbers to solve problems. (Major Cluster) : 

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
