This math topic focuses on comparing quantities using base 10 blocks, aimed at helping learners understand the concepts of greater than, less than, and equal to. Students work with visual representations of numbers in hundreds and tens to decide which side is larger and determine the direction an "alligator" (symbolizing the greater than and less than signs) would face to "eat" the larger amount. These problems strengthen number sense concerning base ten numerical representations and comparison. The activity is presented in a multiple-choice format, enhancing decision-making and critical thinking skills in young learners.
