-An easy way to find 1/4 of a number is - to half it and then half it again.
-Quarters are 4 pieces. That is why there is a number 4 on the bottom.
-Just like halves all the pieces must be equal in size.
-4 quarters make one whole.

Today we are looking at:
greater than >
less than <
equal to =
Remember, the crocodile is very greedy!
He always wants to eat the bigger number.
So his mouth is always open, facing the bigger number.
If the number is the same on both sides, he splits his mouth in two! This creates the equal to sign =.
