What This Standard Means
What Students Need to Do
- Students place numbers up to 100 on a number line. They arrange numbers from least to greatest or greatest to least and compare pairs using <, >, or =.
What Mastery Looks Like
- Students accurately place a number between labeled tens on a number line. They order several numbers and compare two numbers by using tens, ones, and the symbols <, >, or =.
Common Misconceptions
- Students may compare the ones digits first, so they think 29 is greater than 41. They may reverse digits, misuse comparison symbols, or place numbers incorrectly between labeled tens on a number line.
How to Assess It
- Give students a number line marked by tens and the numbers 38, 46, and 61. Ask them to plot the numbers, order them least to greatest, and write one comparison using < or >.
