Problem/activity:
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: 
Recognize area as an attribute of plane figures and understand concepts of area measurement.

Answer: 
No. This activity does not teach students area as an attribute of plane figures. Instead, the activity focuses on solid, three-dimensional figures.

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

standard_description: Interpret and compute quotients of fractions, and solve word problems involving division of fractions by fractions, e.g., by using visual fraction models and equations to represent the problem. For example, create a story context for (2/3) ÷ (3/4) and use a visual fraction model to show the quotient; use the relationship between multiplication and division to explain that (2/3) ÷ (3/4) = 8/9 because 3/4 of 8/9 is 2/3. (In general, (a/b) ÷ (c/d) = ad/bc.) How much chocolate will each person get if 3 people share 1/2 lb of chocolate equally? How many 3/4-cup servings are in 2/3 of a cup of yogurt? How wide is a rectangular strip of land with length 3/4 mi and area 1/2 square mi?
problem_activity: Problem 1
Consider the set of numbers
$$6$$
,
$${4 \frac{1}{2}}$$
,
$$2$$
, and
$$5$$
, and answer the questions that follow.
a.   Graph the numbers on the number line and list the numbers in order from least to greatest.
[IMG]
b.   Write the opposites of each number and graph them on the number line.
c.   Order the opposites from least to greatest.
d.   Is −5 greater than −2? Explain using your number line.
Problem 2
Order the rational numbers below from least to greatest.
$${5, -4, -\frac{1}{3}, \frac{10}{3}, 3, 0, -4\frac{1}{4}, -4\frac{3}{4}}$$
What strategies did you use to determine the correct order?
Problem 3
A student orders three rational numbers from least to greatest as:
$${{{{{{{{{-5}}}}}}}}}$$
,
$${{{{{{{{{-5}}}}}}}}} \frac {1}{3}$$
,
$$6$$
Are the numbers ordered correctly? Choose the best statement below.
