Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to create composite shapes and compose new shapes from composite shapes. For example, students may find that a rectangular prism can be made from four triangular prisms or from eight smaller cubes. Students then discover that they can combine two of the composed rectangular prisms to make a new rectangular prism.

Activity Synthesis
Display a cube and a composite cube—for example, a cube composed of four small cubes and one rectangular prism.
Demonstrate putting the shapes together.
“What new shape did I make with the cube and the cube I made?”
“Put your shapes together to make a rectangular prism.”
Display a rectangular prism and two triangular prisms.
“Find these shapes. Put them together. What new shape can you make?” (a cube, a rectangular block)


Description: 
Compose two-dimensional shapes (rectangles, squares, trapezoids, triangles, half-circles, and quarter-circles) or three-dimensional shapes (cubes, right rectangular prisms, right circular cones, and right circular cylinders) to create a composite shape, and compose new shapes from the composite shape. (Students do not need to learn formal names such as “right rectangular prism.”)

Answer: 
Yes. This activity asks students to compose three-dimensional shapes, using geoblocks, to create composite shapes.

Now, assess whether the following problem or activity aligns with the provided description.

standard_description: Understand that restricting a trigonometric function to a domain on which it is always increasing or always decreasing allows its inverse to be constructed.
problem_activity: Activity
In this activity, students practice making connections between different representations of the same situation. If desired, they can also identify and create any missing representations (this would require removing some cards from the sets you distribute). The practice will be helpful when students make connections between verbal and tabular representations in the associated Algebra 1 lesson. A matching task gives students opportunities to analyze representations, statements, and structures closely and make connections (MP7).
Launch
Arrange students in groups of 2. Distribute 1 set of slips from the blackline master to each group. (A complete set if students will only do the matching. A set that is missing a few cards if you would like for students to create some representations.)
Student Facing
Your teacher will give you a set of cards. Each card has either a verbal description, a table, or a graph. Find the three cards that represent the same situation. If one of the three representations for a situation is missing, use the blank cards to create that representation.

Activity Synthesis
Select groups to share their matches and how they determined which verbal descriptions, tables, and graphs were a match. Look for groups that created different representations for the missing ones. Attend to the language that students use to describe their matching representations, giving them opportunities to describe them more precisely.
