Step 1: Lesson Standards & Learning Goals
In this standard, students apply their understanding of numerals 1 to 10 to compare one numeral to another. For example, looking at the numerals 8 and 10, a student can recognize that the numeral 10 represents a larger amount than the numeral 8. Students need ample experiences with actual sets of objects (NC.K.CC.3 and NC.K.CC.6) before completing this standard with only numerals.
