Y3 Maths
This Year 3 Comparing Numbers lesson covers the prior learning of representing, comparing and ordering 2-digit numbers, before moving onto the main skill of using the greater than, less than and equals symbols to compare 3-digit numbers.
The lesson starts with a prior learning worksheet to check pupils’ understanding. The interactive lesson slides recap the prior learning before moving on to the main skill. Children can then practise further by completing the activities and can extend their learning by completing an engaging extension task.
