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.

The number of tiles in step $n$ of Pattern D is defined by $d(n)=(n+3)^2$. The number of tiles in step $n$ of Pattern E is defined by $e(n)=(n+1)^2-2$.
For each pattern, decide whether there is a step with 167 tiles in it. If so, which step is it? If not, explain how you know.
For each pattern, decide whether there is a step with 169 tiles in it. If so, which step is it? If not, explain how you know.
