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: Use decimal notation for fractions with denominators 10 or 100. For example, rewrite 0.62 as 62/100; describe a length as 0.62 meters; locate 0.62 on a number line diagram.
Grade 4 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 100.
problem_activity: The estimated size for a population of rabbits and a population of coyotes in a desert habitat are shown in the table. The estimated population sizes were recorded as a part of a long-term study related to the effect of commercial development on native animal species.
|  Years since initial count (       *        n       *       )  |   0    |   3    |   6   |   9    |   12   |   15   |  18   |   21   |   24   |
|----------------------------------------------------------------|--------|--------|-------|--------|--------|--------|-------|--------|--------|
| Estimated number of rabbits (       *        r       *       ) | 14,989 | 10,055 | 5,002 | 10,033 | 15,002 | 10,204 | 4,999 | 10,002 | 14,985 |
| Estimated number of coyotes (       *        c       *       ) | 1,995  | 2,201  | 2,003 | 1,795  | 1,999  | 2,208  | 2,010 | 1,804  | 2,001  |
Below are sketches of each graph, with a curve fitted to the data.

Write the function for each situation and then calculate the two different numbers of years where the population estimate is about 13,000 for rabbits and 2,100 for coyotes.
