The Year 2 Compare Objects PowerPoint guides both teachers and children through the lesson, including use of the varied fluency, reasoning and problem solving, deeper reasoning and scaffolded resources. Key learning information about this step:
Key Vocabulary
compare objects: Meaning to see the similarities or differences between groups. One group may have more or fewer objects than another group. Each group may have an equal amount of objects.
tens: A group of 10 ones together is the same as 1 ten.
ones: Individual units that make up a whole number.
value: How much something is worth.
comparison symbols: Comparison symbols are used to represent more than/greater than (>), less than (<) and equal to (=).
Varied Fluency
Knowledge Organiser
• Designed to support all children via key information and examples.
Scaffolded Examples
Counting one set of marbles, comparing two sets of marbles, then using a comparison symbol.
Support
• Q1: count two sets of marbles and complete three sentences.
• Q2: write <, > or = in the box to compare two Base 10 sets.
• Q3: tick the true statement about the gems, from two options.
Core
• Q1: count two sets of marbles and complete two comparison sentences.
• Q2: write <, > or = in the box to compare two Base 10 sets and complete a stem sentence.
• Q3: tick the true statement about the gems, from three options.
Stretch
• Q1: count two sets of marbles and complete two comparison sentences.
• Q2: write <, > or = in the box to compare two Base 10 sets and complete a stem sentence.
• Q3: tick the true statement about the gems, from three options.
Reasoning and Problem Solving
Support
• Q1: Reasoning - decide whether a character is right about which set of marbles has more, only comparing the ones digit.
• Q2: Reasoning - decide whether a character has made an accurate set based on a comparison statement, where Set B is represented.
• Q3: Problem Solving - complete Set B to fit three rules.
Core
• Q1: Reasoning - decide whether a character is right about which set of marbles has more.
• Q2: Reasoning - decide whether a character will make an accurate set based on a comparison statement.
• Q3: Problem Solving - complete Set B to fit four rules, including odd and even.
Stretch
• Q1: Reasoning - decide whether a character is right, then write a sentence comparing two sets.
• Q2: Reasoning - decide whether a character will make an accurate set based on a comparison statement, where there are more then 10 single gems.
• Q3: Problem Solving - complete Set B to fit four rules, including multiples and digit totals.
Deeper Reasoning
The questions in this set focus on problem solving with number cards to deepen understanding in comparing and ordering numbers from 0 up to 100.
