Comparing numbers!
- 1. Comparing Numbers! Jayme Wilson
- 2. Numbers! Numbers are all similar! A way to compare all numbers Same as More than Less than Equal to Increasing Order Decreasing Order
- 3. Same As: Two or more equal amounts Can show they are equal by: Use “=“ sign to show = State “same as” between the numbers
- 4. Examples! Three oranges is the same as three apples 3 = 3 III = III
- 5. More than: One amount is larger than the other Can show greater by: “Greater than” > “More than” “>” symbol
- 6. More than Examples 4 is more than 3 4 is greater than 3 4 > 3
- 7. Less than One amount is smaller than the other < Can show by: “Less than” “fewer than” “<“ symbol
- 8. Less than Examples! 2 Is less than 3 2 < 3 2 Is fewer than 3
- 9. Increasing Order Numbers going from smallest to largest Can be many numbers Also called ascending order
- 10. Increasing Examples 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 5, 20, 29, 32, 37, 41 6, 8, 10, 12, 14
- 11. Decreasing Order Numbers go from larger to smaller Can use as many numbers as possible Also called descending order
- 12. Decreasing Examples 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 72, 64, 59, 42, 12 24, 22, 20, 18, 16
- 13. Now For the Fun! Each student will receive their own M & M’s Each cup contains: 7 yellow 4 brown 6 red 3 orange 5 blue 2 green
- 14. Activity! With your M & M’s show: 5 >2 3< 4 2 =2
- 15. Activity! Place your M&M’s in: Decreasing Order by color Increasing Order by color
