This resource shows you fun, hands-on ways to help children understand how to compare numbers through meaningful play. Our Year 1 Compare Numbers with the Same Number of Tens Practical Activities resource is just right for you!

This pack includes four engaging activities carefully designed for your continuous provision areas – covering maths, outdoor, fine motor and sand learning. Children will explore making and comparing numbers while building important early maths skills. Give it a try!

Teaching note: Inequality symbols are included in this step as they were introduced in Au Block 1 Step 12. Although this is a Y2 objective, they can be used as a visual aid to improve fluency as children continue comparing numbers and amounts.
