Why get the bundle
- Comparing to 100 benefits from many looks. Cards, games and a digital deck give children different ways to practice the tens-first habit.
The problem
Why is 39 less than 41 when 9 is bigger than 1?
With two-digit numbers, children can compare the wrong digits. Tens decide first, even when the ones look bigger.
Looking at ones first
In 39 and 41, the 9 beats the 1, so some children choose 39. Compare the tens digit first.
One digit versus two
4 and 83 are easy for a child who sees there are fewer digits. They get confused when the digits look similar, like 4 and 14.
Reversed digits
Pairs like 27 and 72 use the same digits. Children need place value, not just recognition, to compare them.
Every problem asks >, < or = for numbers up to 100. Children learn to compare tens, then ones if they match.
What’s inside
30 questions, one per slide.
Students type straight into the box — no printing, no cutting.

Who it’s for
Built for the kitchen table and the classroom.
Parents & homeschool
Write two numbers on cards. Ask which has more tens. If the tens match, look at the ones. Make it a game with a deck of number cards.
Teachers
Fits a first or second grade place-value unit. Use as a check that students really use tens and ones.
Place-value support
Students who can read numbers but cannot compare them often need exactly this tens-first thinking.

Questions
Before you buy.
Are the numbers within 100?
Yes, one- and two-digit numbers appear together, so the child compares sizes, not just digit positions.
Is there an equal sign option?
Yes, all three symbols are offered each time, so a child must think rather than guess.
How do I get the file?
The download link appears right after checkout and lands in your inbox at the same time. One PowerPoint file you can open in Google Slides.
Can I share it with my class?
Yes — one teacher can use it with their own students, this year and next. Sharing the file with other teachers needs a separate license.
Do I need Google Slides?
No. The file is a PowerPoint (.pptx). It opens in PowerPoint, and in Google Slides once you upload it to Google Drive.
