About this resource
Description
Comparing numbers is a key part of building strong number sense, and inequality symbols make it easy to show which number is bigger, which is smaller, and when two numbers are the same. This Less Than, Equal To, or Greater Than Worksheet gives first graders focused practice using the three symbols—less than (<), equal to (=), and greater than (>)—to compare pairs of two-digit numbers.
This 1st grade inequalities worksheet presents ten pairs of two-digit numbers, and students write the correct symbol in the circle between them. A handy reference bar at the top reminds children what each symbol means. Use it as morning work, a math center, homework, or a quick check for understanding, and the included answer key makes grading fast for teachers and parents.
What’s Included
- 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
- Answer key
- 10 comparison problems using <, =, and >
This Less Than, Equal To, or Greater Than Worksheet helps kids in three ways. First, it reinforces place value, since comparing two-digit numbers means looking at the tens first and then the ones. Second, it builds symbol fluency, giving repeated practice with the greater than, less than, and equal signs until reading them becomes automatic. Third, it grows independence and confidence, because clear examples and an answer key let students check their own work.
Teachers and parents can make comparing numbers hands-on and fun. Line up number cards and have children point the “hungry alligator” mouth toward the bigger number, build two towers of blocks and compare the heights, or roll dice and race to write the correct symbol. Singing an inequalities song together is a playful way to help the symbols stick, and comparing prices, scores, or ages at home connects the skill to real life.
