Example:
Concept/skill: 
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.

Problem/activity:
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} $

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

Now, assess whether the following problem or activity is 'aligned' with the given Common Core standard in Mathematics.

standard_description: Use the structure of an expression to identify ways to rewrite it. For example, see x^(4) – y^(4 )as (x^(2))^(2 )– (y^(2))^(2), thus recognizing it as a difference of squares that can be factored as (x^(2 )– y^(2))(x^(2 )+ y^(2)).
problem_activity: Problem 1
Expand each expression below as a product of two linear binomials and then multiply to write the product in standard form.
a.
$${(x-5)^2}$$
b.
$${(x+4)^2}$$
c.
$${(x-3)^2}$$
d.
$${(2x+1)^2}$$
e.
$${(3x-2)^2}$$
Describe any patterns you notice between the square of the linear binomial and the resulting quadratic trinomial.
Problem 2
Solve the quadratic equation and then sketch a graph of the parabola.
$${y=(x-4)^2}$$
Problem 3
What is the value of
$$c$$
in the equation below such that the quadratic equation is a perfect square trinomial?
$$y=x^2+12x+c$$


aligns: yes
