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?

problem_activity: Nyan Cat travels at
$$4.2\times10^2$$
miles per hour. Grumpy Cat travels at a pokey
$$7\times10^{-1}$$
miles per hour.
a.   How many times faster is Nyan Cat traveling than Grumpy Cat?
b.   The Peregrine Falcon, the fastest bird, can fly up to half of Nyan Cat’s speed. How fast can a Peregrine Falcon fly? Write your answer in decimal notation and scientific notation.
