Task
Cruz and Erica were both getting ready for soccer.
Cruz ran 1 lap around the school.
Erica ran 3 laps around the playground.
Erica said,
I ran more laps, so I ran farther.
Cruz said,
4 laps around the school is 1 mile, but it takes 12 laps around the playground to go 1 mile. My laps are much longer, so I ran farther.

Topic options: 
A. Modeling: students learn to choose and use appropriate mathematics and statistics to analyze real-world empirical situations, improve decisions, and report on their conclusions and the reasoning behind them.
B. Measurement & Data: students learn to work with data and measure attributes such as time, money, length, area, and volume. They may learn to compare measurements to operations and convert between different units of measure.
C. Number Systems and Quantity: students learn to understand the complex number system and reason quantitatively.
D. Number & Operations - Fractions: students learn to understand fractions as numbers and may work with them using addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
E. Geometry: students learn to classify geometric figures by their properties, and understand and compare the relationships between them. Students develop and use formulas to compute lengths, areas, and volumes, and they use transformations to generate new shapes and compare existing ones. Geometry can be studied with and without coordinates.
F. Number & Operations in Base Ten: students learn to work with the base-ten system and build place value understanding.
G. Statistics & Probability: students learn to analyze and produce data distributions, and build understanding of univariate and bivariate data. They learn to interpret data, make statistical inferences, justify conclusions, understand rules of probability, and use probability to make decisions.
H. Ratios & Proportional Relationships: students learn to recognize, describe, represent, and reason with ratios, rates, proportional relationships, and percent.
I. Counting & Cardinality: students learn to know number names and the count sequence, count to tell the number of objects, and compare numbers.
J. Functions: students learn to define, use, and evaluate functions to model relationships between quantities.
K. Operations & Algebra: students learn to solve problems using algebraic thinking and operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. They may learn to identify and explain arithmetic patterns, evaluate or manipulate numerical expressions, and reason with equations and inequalities.


Your response, in json format:
{
  "explanation": "In this problem, students learn to recognize equivalent fractions. Each lap around the school is 1/4 mile, while each lap around the playground is 1/12 mile. Three laps around the playground is 3/12 mile, which is equivalent to 1/4.",
  "answer": "D"
}

Now, assign the following problem or activity to one or more relevant topics it teaches.

problem_activity: Optional activity
In this optional activity, students use colored pencils (or pens or highlighters) to label the radius and height on different pictures of cylinders. Then they sketch their own cylinders and label the radius and heights of those. The purpose of this activity is for students to practice identifying the radius and height of various cylinders, some of which are in context.
This activity can also be abbreviated if students demonstrate prior understanding of how to draw or label cylinders and only need a brief refresh.
Launch
Distribute colored pencils. Give students 1–2 minutes of quiet work time followed by a whole-class discussion.
Student Facing
For cylinders A–D, sketch a radius and the height. Label the radius with an
\(r\)
and the height with an
\(h\)
.
[IMG]
Earlier you learned how to sketch a cylinder. Sketch cylinders for E and F and label each one’s radius and height.

Anticipated Misconceptions
In diagrams D and E, some students might mistake the diameter for the height of the cylinder. Some students may mark a height taller than the cylinder due to the tilt of the figure.
Activity Synthesis
Select students to share where they marked the radius and height and the cylinders sketched for images E and F. Discuss examples of other cylinders students see in real life.
Speaking, Listening: MLR3 Clarify, Critique, Correct.
Present an incorrect drawing that reflects a possible misunderstanding from the class about the height of a cylinder. For example, draw a cylinder with the diameter incorrectly placed at its height and the height at its diameter. Prompt students to identify the error, (e.g., ask, “Do you agree with the representation? Why or why not?”), correct the representation, and write feedback to the author explaining the error. This helps students develop an understanding and make sense of identifying the heights of differently-oriented cylinders.
Design Principle(s): Support sense-making; Maximize meta-awareness
