Activities in this teaching pack include differentiated sets of cards to practise using numerical digits and pictorial symbols to produce equations for numbers that are greater than and less than other numbers to ten for core and extension ability levels and to five for support ability levels.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to use digits and symbols to produce equations for numbers greater than and less than other numbers to ten.

This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to use concrete equipment and diagrams to model how to compare numbers within twenty by the value of their digits when recording equations using numbers and symbols. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
