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.

standard_description: Correctly name shapes regardless of their orientations or overall size.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this activity is to introduce stage 2 of the Connecting Cubes center. Students use connecting cubes to make objects pictured on cards. As they work, observe whether students match the connecting cubes to the image or count the number of connecting cubes in the image to create their own object (MP6).
