This math topic focuses on comparing quantities using the symbols less than (<), greater than (>), and equal to (=). Specifically, it teaches how to translate visual representations involving an alligator—an engaging method for children—into these comparison symbols. The alligator imagery is commonly used to help kids visualize which value is larger, as the alligator's mouth opens towards the larger number. There are multiple questions where students must identify the correct mathematical symbol that represents the relationship shown by the alligator's orientation. This is part of an introductory unit on comparing quantities and understanding basic inequality symbols.
