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} $

Concept/skill: 
Explain equivalence of fractions in special cases, and compare fractions by reasoning about their size.
 Grade 3 expectations in this domain are limited to fractions with denominators 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8.

Answer: 
Yes. By arranging the fractions in this problem, students learn to compare fractions by reasoning about their size.

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

standard_description: Describe qualitatively the functional relationship between two quantities by analyzing a graph (e.g., where the function is increasing or decreasing, linear or nonlinear). Sketch a graph that exhibits the qualitative features of a function that has been described verbally.
problem_activity: Problem 1
Below is the graph and equation of the function
$$f$$
.
$$f(x)=(x-2)(x-5)\over(x-2)(x+1)$$
[IMG]
And below is the graph and equation of the function
$$g$$
.
$$g(x)={(x-5)\over(x+1)}$$
[IMG]
How are the functions
$$f$$
and
$$g$$
similar Different?
Problem 2
How are the functions
$${g(x)}$$
and
$${h(x)}$$
different? Similar?
$${g(x)}={x^2\over{x-2}}$$
$${h(x)}={x^2-4\over{(x-2)(x+3)}}$$
