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} $

Description: 
Understand a fraction as a number on the number line; represent fractions on a number line diagram.
 Grade 3 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8.

Answer: 
No. Completing this task does not involve representing fractions on a number line diagram.

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

standard_description: Solve addition and subtraction word problems, and add and subtract within 10, e.g., by using objects or drawings to represent the problem.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to solve a Put Together/Take Apart, Both Addends Unknown story problem about dates stuffed with cheese or almonds in more than one way. In the activity synthesis, students share their solutions. As students share, record their drawings and solutions systematically, as shown:
1 cheese, 7 almond
2 cheese, 6 almond
3 cheese, 5 almond
4 cheese, 4 almond
5 cheese, 3 almond
6 cheese, 2 almond
7 cheese, 1 almond
Only record solutions that students find for the problem. Leave an empty space if a combination isn’t shared.
In the lesson synthesis, students discuss whether a solution of 3 dates stuffed with cheese and 5 dates stuffed with almonds is the same solution as 5 dates stuffed with cheese and 3 dates stuffed with almonds. The purpose of the question is for students to think about and discuss what decompositions of numbers mean in context (MP2, MP6). There is no correct answer to the question. Some students may determine that both solutions are the same because they both showed 5 and 3 while other students may determine that the solutions are different because there are different numbers of dates stuffed with cheese and dates stuffed with almonds (MP3).
Representation: Internalize Comprehension.
Synthesis: Reiterate the fact that in this problem there is more than one answer. Make a connection between the solutions that were found and that they all add up to the same total number of dates.

Read and display the task statement.
“Tell your partner what happened in the story.”
30 seconds: quiet think time
1 minute: partner discussion
“What are we trying to figure out?” (How many of the dates were stuffed with cheese and how many of the dates were stuffed with almonds?)
30 seconds: quiet think time
1 minute: partner discussion
“Show your thinking using drawings, numbers, words, or objects.”
Activity
2 minutes: quiet work time
2 minutes: partner discussion
“Write an expression to show how many of the dates were stuffed with cheese and how many were stuffed with almonds.”
1 minute: independent work time
“As you walk around, look to see if you can find other ways to solve the story problem.”
5 minutes: gallery walk
Student Facing
Andre and his older brother have 8 dates.
They stuff some of the dates with cheese.
They stuff the rest of the dates with almonds.
How many of the dates did they stuff with cheese?
Then how many of the dates did they stuff with almonds?

Activity Synthesis
Invite students to share their solution or solutions they found during the gallery walk. Record student solutions as explained in the activity narrative.
“What do you notice? What do you wonder?” (2 and 6 is there but not 6 and 2. When it’s 4 and 4, there are the same number of cheese dates and almond dates. The first numbers are getting bigger and the second numbers are getting smaller.)
“Are there any other ways that we can solve the problem? What makes you think that?”
Record each student solution with an equation.
