ANSWER KEY
1. Yes. 16 is even because it can be shared fairly in two equal groups.
2. a. 9 odd
b. 8 even; 4 + 4 = 8
c. Answers Vary
3. answers vary; number of beads must be even and equation must show equal addends
4. 8
5. 19
6. 12
7. a. 13
b. 6
c. 17
d. 7
Each problem could be solved using doubles plus one.
8. Angel is correct. He decomposed the 9 into 5 and 4 so that he could use doubles (5 + 5 = 10) and then he added the 4 back on (10 + 4 = 14).
9 & 10) Students create a word problem, solve it, then give it to another student to solve. Students need to demonstrate mastery.
