Objective: To understand the math concepts of greater than and less than. Also how to put the problem into a sentence form.
Materials:
chalkboard or large chart paper.

Activity:
Introduce the concepts of greater then > , Less than < and = to.
Use a transparency that is blank and put this problem on the transparency.
25_____ 50. Ask the children what they would prefer to eat 25 candy bars or 50? Show them that the signs<> look like a mouth. Always point the mouth > towards the biggest number. Now explain to the children that they can read it just like a sentence. 25 is less than 50.
Next start writing another problem on the transparency and ask students to come up and put the correct sign. After they are finished ask another student to read the math problem. Do this till everyone has had a chance if they want to answer a problem. Keep reminding the students if necessary that they want the mouth pointed to the most highest or biggest number. Because wouldn't you want the most candy???
Have them make problems on a piece of paper and have a partner put in the correct sign. Have them check each other's work. Give a short homework assignment with the same format. Most kids will get this in a short time. Also talk about if the numbers are the same. Such as 54_____54. Show them that they just put an = sign.
