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: Compare two decimals to hundredths by reasoning about their size. Recognize that comparisons are valid only when the two decimals refer to the same whole. Record the results of comparisons with the symbols >, =, or <, and justify the conclusions, e.g., by using a visual model.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.
problem_activity: Problem 1
A dime is
$${{1\over10}}$$
of a dollar and a penny is
$${{1\over100}}$$
of a dollar.
Would you rather have 4 one-dollar bills and 1 dime, 42 dimes, or 413 pennies? Justify your answer.
Problem 2
a.   Decide whether each of these has the same value as 3.57. Explain your reasoning.
357 tenths
357 hundredths
3 ones 57 tenths
3 ones 57 hundredths
34 tenths 17 hundredths
3 ones 7 hundredths 5 tenths
b.   Find as many ways as you can to make
$$2 \frac{4}{10}$$
using ones, tenths, and hundredths. If you think you have found all the ways, explain how you know your list is complete.
Problem 3
a.   What number represents the same amount as 1 one 70 hundredths?
b.   What number represents the same amount as 40 tenths 9 hundredths?
c.   What number represents the same amount as 268 hundredths?
d.   What number represents the same amount as 2 ones 14 tenths?
e.   What number represents the same amount as 3 ones 16 tenths 25 hundredths?
