Four students are considering the equation below.  Select the statement(s) that reflect fully correct reasoning about the equation and/or trichotomy property. Ada says, “D is more than C because 6 is bigger than 2 so that side has more.” Beta says, “C is more than D because we needed to add less to it to have the same value as D + 6.” Caty says, “C and D are the same value since that is what the equal sign means.” Dayna says, “Well, it looks like C and D are equal because Ada showed how they were, C is less than D because Beta explained that, and C is more than D since Caty showed how.  This is just like what the trichotomy property says can happen.” Eta says, “No, the trichotomy property says C and D are related in one of those three ways (C = D, C > D, or C < D).  They cannot be related in all three ways at the same time."

You are doing a number talk with your first graders for 38+16. One student says, “I added the tens first. So, I took thirty and added it to ten to get forty. Then, I needed to add the ones. To make this easier, I took two from the six to give to the eight to make ten and then added on the remaining 4 to get fourteen. Taking forty and fourteen gives fifty-four.” Select the equation string for this approach that connects all of the student’s thinking AND reveals the properties they used in this thinking strategy.
