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.
Required Materials
Materials to Gather

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: 
Recognize area as an attribute of plane figures and understand concepts of area measurement.

Answer: 
No. This activity does not teach students area as an attribute of plane figures. Instead, the activity focuses on solid, three-dimensional figures.

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

standard_description: Draw polygons in the coordinate plane given coordinates for the vertices; use coordinates to find the length of a side joining points with the same first coordinate or the same second coordinate. Apply these techniques in the context of solving real-world and mathematical problems.
problem_activity: Warm-up
This warm-up highlights the three forms of quadratic expressions students have seen so far. It reinforces how each form gives different insights into the graph of a quadratic function.
Launch
Arrange students in groups of 2. Give students a minute of quiet think time, and then ask them to share their thinking with a partner.
Student Facing
Expressions in different forms can be used to define the same function. Here are three ways to define a function
\(f\)
.
\(f(x)=x^2-4x+3\)
(standard form)
\(f(x)=(x-3)(x-1)\)
(factored form)
\(f(x)=(x-2)^2-1\)
(vertex form)
Which form would you use if you want to find the following features of the graph of
\(f\)
? Be prepared to explain your reasoning.
the
\(x\)
-intercepts
the vertex
the
\(y\)
-intercept

Activity Synthesis
Invite students to share their responses and explanations. Encourage students to name specific features of the graph of
\(f\)
. If time permits, consider asking students to use all of the info they can gather to sketch a graph.
If not already mentioned by students, point out that while the standard form allows us to find the
\(y\)
-intercept more readily, the
\(y\)
-intercept can always be found by evaluating the function at
\(x=0\)
.
