Further Investigating Greater Than, Less Than, and Equal to
Students investigate number relationships such as greater than, less than, and equal to. In this number relationship lesson plan, students use number mats and a fish with a large, open mouth to practice showing number relationships.
Illustrative Mathematics
Longer and Heavier? Shorter and Heavier?
For many young children it seems obvious that longer objects are heavier than shorter objects. This assumption is put to the test as the class investigates the relationship between length and weight in a whole-group activity. Using a...
