2. Students in their group will be given a variety of number cards. They will be required to
identify different number from their sets based on the instruction given by the teacher.

3. They will then show all the numbers in their set to the class and then show the correct one
based on the instruction given. Students will be asked to identify the symbol used to
compare things.
Explain
4. Students will define the term symbol. It means things that are used to stand for or
represent something but in this case symbols are used to compare numbers by size. They
