Learn to compare two-digit numbers using place value with interactive activities and real-world scenarios
Each module focuses on different aspects of number comparison with interactive activities
Learn comparison rules with visual demonstrations. Compare tens first, then ones, and understand comparison symbols.
Practice comparing numbers through engaging scenarios like toy shopping and marble counting games.
Review comparison concepts with static examples and interactive demonstrations from real-world scenarios.
Practice comparing numbers through engaging scenarios and earn achievement badges
Compare toy prices like $42 car vs $29 airplane. Choose the correct symbol and see the seesaw animation.
Compare marble collections like 53 vs 58 marbles. Focus on ones place when tens are the same.
Fill in the blanks with >, <, or = symbols. Practice with various number combinations.
Master these essential comparison skills aligned with 1st grade standards
When comparing two-digit numbers, always look at the tens place first. The number with the larger tens digit is greater.
Example:
35 vs 27: 3 tens > 2 tens, so 35 > 27
If the tens digits are the same, then compare the ones digits. The number with the larger ones digit is greater.
Example:
28 vs 25: Both have 2 tens, but 8 ones > 5 ones, so 28 > 25
> means 'greater than' (opening toward the larger number), < means 'less than' (pointing toward the smaller number), = means 'equal to'.
Example:
35 > 27, 19 = 19, 56 < 65
Follow these systematic steps to compare any two-digit numbers
Look at the tens digit of both numbers. The number with the larger tens digit is greater.
Example:
42 vs 29 → 4 tens vs 2 tens → 42 > 29
If tens digits are equal, compare the ones digits. The number with the larger ones digit is greater.
Example:
53 vs 58 → 5 tens = 5 tens, 3 ones vs 8 ones → 53 < 58
Choose the right symbol: > (greater than), < (less than), or = (equal to).
Example:
35 > 27, 19 = 19, 56 < 65
