Comparing 2-Digit Numbers (1)

EASYTEACHING.NET

Overview:

This worksheet helps students use the ‘greater than’ and ‘less than’ symbols to compare 2-digit numbers. Designed for early years students.

Learning Objectives:

  • Recognise the value of digits in a 2-digit number.
  • Compare numbers using ‘greater than’ and ‘less than’ symbols.
  • Develop an understanding of number relationships and place value.

How the Activity Works:

In this activity, students are given a series of 2-digit numbers. They use the ‘greater than’ and ‘less than’ symbols to compare the numbers and complete the task. To further reinforce understanding, students may be asked to explain their reasoning, such as identifying which digit has a higher place value, or they may be provided with visual aids like number lines or ten frames to support the comparison.
