This learning resource focuses on comparing multi-digit numbers using place value reasoning up to 10,000. It outlines the learning objectives and includes activities that encourage students to engage with base ten blocks for visualization. The resource provides structured comparisons between numbers through guided practice, emphasizing the importance of starting from the largest place value when making comparisons. It covers how to compare numbers using both left-to-right strategy and place value charts, as well as independent practice tasks and reflection prompts. The resource aims to develop students' ability to articulate their reasoning while using appropriate mathematical symbols such as >, <, and =.
