Greater than, Less than and Equal too


My core requirements for learning this concept if for the first grade studying math. I chose to do this topic due to me always never remember the rules for this concept. I still get very mixed up and I always hated learning math. I feel like math has always been my struggle so I felt like teaching this concept in my video. Due to my lack of knowledge even today I cant get this concept fully understood. Understanding this concept is a core requirement for any 1st grader. Understanding this will only get them better understanding for learning more math concepts. I think in my future classroom I will still have troubles teaching this concept due to my lack of knowledge never know how to figure out whether it was greater than or less than. I now know the most important rule that the opening of the arrow always opens up towards the bigger number and if you can remember that concept you will always get these problems correct. I plan to use this rule when teaching this concept and hopefully my students can fully understand and know how to get these kinds of problems right. I know sometimes this can be a tricky concept and I see why I never understood it. But as long as you know the rule there’s no going wrong.
