* Number Lines – Compare numbers on a number line from 0 to 12.
* Greater Than and Less Than – Master the > and < symbols through ‘discussion’, ‘read’, and ‘write’ lessons.
* Cubes 1 to 10 – Stacked cubes illustrate and compare numbers from 1 to 10.
* Cubes to 100 – Stacked cubes illustrate and compare numbers from 1 to 100.
* Between – Lessons compare three numbers on a number line, show corresponding between statements, and give students the opportunity to practice writing their own.
