This math topic focuses on comparing groups of shapes to determine which group is larger, using the concept of the "alligator mouth" to signify greater than. Students are presented with problems where they must choose the correct direction for the alligator's mouth to point towards the larger number of shapes. This topic helps to develop an understanding of comparison and the concepts of less than and greater than, with all quantities being under 20. It offers practice in basic counting and comparison skills, essential for foundational math learning.
