place value · comparing two-digit numbers using >, <, and =
To compare 2 two-digit numbers up to 100 using >,< and = [1.NBT.B.3].
TILE COMPARE is a Grade 1 place-value game for comparing two-digit numbers with >, <, and =. Players build or reveal two-digit values, compare the tens first and then the ones when needed, and choose the correct comparison symbol. The game keeps the symbolic comparison tied to actual place-value reasoning.
Use it for partner or small-group practice when students are learning to compare numbers to 100. Ask students to say the comparison as a sentence before placing the symbol so the notation has a clear verbal meaning.
