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)


Concept/skill: 
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 is 'aligned' with the given Common Core standard in Mathematics.

problem_activity: A bakery sells small cakes for
$${ {{$1}}0}$$
each. At this price, the bakery typically sells
$${100}$$
cakes per week.
The owner of the bakery wants to increase the price of the cake in order to maximize revenue. She determines that for each
$${{$1}}$$
increase in price, she sells
$$5$$
fewer cakes per week.
a.  Which function represents the weekly revenue,
$${R(x)}$$
, the owner of the bakery can expect to earn from the cakes based on
$$x$$
increases in price by
$${{$1}}$$
.
i.
$${R(x)}=(10-x)({100}+5x)$$
ii.
$${R(x)}=(10+x)({100}-5x)$$
iii.
$${R(x)}=(10-5x)({100}+x)$$
iv.
$${R(x)}=(10+5x)({100}-x)$$
b.  At what price will the owner of the bakery earn the maximum weekly revenue from sales of the small cakes?
