Task
 Arrange the fractions in order from least to greatest. Explain your answer with a picture.
 $\frac{1}{5}, \frac{1}{7}, \frac{1}{3} $
 $\frac{2}{5}, \frac{2}{7}, \frac{2}{3} $
 $\frac{5}{6}, \frac{3}{6}, \frac{1}{6} $
 $\frac{5}{12}, \frac{8}{12}, \frac{4}{12} $

Concept/skill: 
Explain equivalence of fractions in special cases, and compare fractions by reasoning about their size.
 Grade 3 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8.

Answer: 
Yes. By arranging the fractions in this problem, students learn to compare fractions by reasoning about their size.

Now, does the problem or activity shown below enable students to learn the full intent of the following concept or skill?

standard_description: Interpret expressions that represent a quantity in terms of its context.
problem_activity: Problem 1
A rectangular garden has a width of
$$x$$
feet. The length of the garden is
$$4$$
feet longer than the width. Around the garden there is a pathway that measures
$$3$$
feet across the path.
[IMG]
The expression below represents the area of the pathway, not including the garden.
$$(x+6)(x+10)-x(x+4)$$
Explain what each part of the expression represents in context of the situation.
a.
$$x$$
b.
$$x+4$$
c.
$$x+10$$
d.
$$x(x+4)$$
e.
$$(x+6)(x+10)$$
Problem 2
An artist has a strip of wood
$$8$$
feet long to make a large rectangular picture frame. The possible dimensions of the frame that the artist can create can be represented as
$$x$$
and
$$4-x$$
, as seen in the diagram below.
[IMG]
What is the largest area the artist can frame with the
$$8$$
feet of wood?
