      TEKS 2.2D: Compare and Order Numbers

      • Compare Whole Numbers Up to 1,200

        About this lesson

        Learning Target: I can compare whole numbers up to 1,200 using comparison symbols.

        Focuses On:

        • Determining whether a number is greater than, less than or equal to another number
        • Using comparison symbols

        Builds On:

        1.2G:

        Represent the comparison of two numbers to 100 using the symbols >, <, or = (R)

        Next Level:

        3.2D:

        Compare and order whole numbers up to 100,000 and represent comparisons using >, <, or = (R)

        Read More:

        This lesson is designed to support student understanding of comparing whole numbers and using the appropriate comparison symbol in number sentences.

         

        The instructional block in this lesson focuses on having students determine if a number is greater than, less than or equal to another number. By focusing on place value, students will look at the thousands, hundreds, tens and ones place to determine how two numbers compare. Students will then use the correct comparison symbol to represent their thinking.


        Scaffolds such as supported expressions and visual models are intentionally built throughout the lesson to support conceptual learning.

      • Order Whole Numbers Up to 1,200

        About this lesson

        Learning Target: I can order whole numbers from greatest to least and least to greatest.

        Focuses On:

        • Ordering numbers from greatest to least
        • Ordering numbers from least to greatest

        Builds On:

        1.2G:

        Represent the comparison of two numbers to 100 using the symbols >, <, or = (R)

        Next Level:

        3.2D:

        Compare and order whole numbers up to 100,000 and represent comparisons using >, <, or = (R)

        Read More:

        This lesson is designed to support student understanding of comparing whole numbers and putting them in a specified order based on their value.

         

        The two instructional blocks in this lesson focuses on having students order a set of numbers from greatest to least and then least to greatest.


        In the first instructional block, students practice ordering numbers from greatest to least. Students will determine which is the greatest number, the least number and the numbers that are in between. Students will use a place value chart to assist them in determine which numbers are greater by comparing the thousands, hundreds, tens and ones place.


        The second instructional block uses the same strategies as the first block, but students practice ordering numbers from least to greatest.
