A STORY OF UNITS – TEKS EDITION Lesson 12 3 2 Lesson 12 Objective: Compare numbers based on the meaning of the digits using , or = to record the comparison. Suggested Learning Structure Fluency Practice (10 minutes) Application Problem (5 minutes) Concept Development (34 minutes) Student Debrief (11 minutes) Total Time (60 minutes) Fluency Practice (10 minutes) ⬛ Halfway on the Number Line 3.2C (4 minutes) ⬛ Group Counting 3.4E (4 minutes) ⬛ Determine the Unit of Measure 3.7D (2 minutes) Halfway on the Number Line (4 minutes) Materials: (S) Personal white board Note: This activity anticipates rounding in the next topic. Practicing this skill in isolation lays a foundation for conceptually understanding rounding on a vertical number line. T: (Project a vertical line with endpoints labeled 0 and 10.) What number is halfway between 0 tens and 1 ten? S: 5. T: (Write 5 halfway between 0 and 10.) Repeat the process with endpoints labeled 10 and 20. T: Draw a vertical number line on your board. Make tick marks at each end and one for the halfway point. S: (Draw number line.) T: (Write 7 tens and 8 tens.) Label the tick marks at each end and at the halfway point. S: (Label 70 as the bottom point, 80 at the top point, and 75 as the halfway point.) Continue with the following possible sequence: 50 and 60, 90 and 100, 40 and 50, 60 and 70. Lesson 12: Compare numbers based on the meaning of the digits using , or = to record the comparison. 139 © Great Minds PBC TEKS Edition | greatminds.org/Texas A STORY OF UNITS – TEKS EDITION Lesson 12 3 2 Group Counting (4 minutes) Note: Group counting reviews interpreting multiplication as repeated addition. The counting by groups in this activity reviews foundational strategies for multiplication from Module 1 and anticipates Module 3. Direct students to count forward and backward, occasionally changing the direction of the count using the following suggested sequence: ⬛ Threes to 30 ⬛ Fours to 40 ⬛ Sixes to 60 ⬛ Sevens to 70 ⬛ Eights to 80 ⬛ Nines to 90 As students’ fluency with skip-counting improves, help them make a connection to multiplication by tracking the number of groups they count using their fingers. Determine the Unit of Measure (2 minutes) Note: This activity reviews the difference in size between grams and kilograms as units of measure from Lesson 5. T: I’ll name an object. You say if it should be measured in grams or kilograms. Pear. S: Grams. Continue with the following possible sequence: tomato, horse, crayon, desk, motorcycle, eraser. hundred ten Application Problem (5 minutes) thousands thousands thousands hundreds tens ones 4 2 9 7 6 Draw and label the units on the place value chart to hundred thousands. Use each of the digits 9, 7, 6, 4, and 2 once to create a number that is between 4 ten thousands and 6 ten thousands. Write the number you created in expanded form and expanded notation. Extension: Create two more numbers following the same directions as above. Note: This Application Problem builds on the content of the previous lesson, requiring students to read and write numbers to 40,000 + 2,000 + 900 + 70 + 6 100,000 using base ten numerals, number (4 x 10,000) + (2 x 1,000) + (9 x 100) + (7 x 10) + (6 x 1) names, expanded form and expanded notation. Lesson 12: Compare numbers based on the meaning of the digits using , or = to 140 record the comparison. © Great Minds PBC TEKS Edition | greatminds.org/Texas A STORY OF UNITS – TEKS EDITION Lesson 12 3 2 Concept Development (34 minutes) 10,000 100 10,000 100 Materials: (S) Personal white board, unlabeled hundred thousands 10,000 100 place value chart (Lesson Template) 10,000 10,000 100 Problem 1: Comparing two numbers with the same largest unit. 10,000 100 100 100 Display: 40,300 20,500 100 T: Let’s compare two numbers. Model each number on your place value chart. What is the name of the unit with the greatest value? S: Ten thousands. T: Compare the value of the ten thousands. NOTES ON S: 4 ten thousands is greater than 2 ten thousands. 2 ten MULTIPLE MEANS thousands is less than 4 ten thousands. OF REPRESENTATION: T: Tell your partner what would happen if we only compared Provide sentence frames for English hundreds rather than the unit with the greatest value. language learners and other students S: We would say that 40,300 is less than 20,500, but that isn’t to refer to when using comparative correct. à The greater number is the one with more of the statements. largest unit being compared. à We don’t need to compare the hundreds because the ten thousands are different. T: Ten thousands is our largest unit. 4 ten thousands is greater than 2 ten thousands, so 40,300 is the greater number. (Write the comparison symbol > in the circle.) Write the comparison statement on your board, and say it to your partner in two different ways. S: (Write 40,300 > 20,500.) 40,300 is greater than 20,500. 20,500 is less than 40,300. Problem 2: Comparing two numbers with an equal amount of the largest units. Display: 34,051 36,200 T: Model and read each number. How is this comparison like 1,000 10 1 10,000 the last comparison? How is it different? 10,000 1,000 10 1,000 10 S: Thirty-four thousand, fifty-one. Thirty-six thousand, two 10,000 1,000 10 10 hundred. Before, the two numbers had different numbers 1,000 100 of ten thousands. Now, the two numbers have the same 10,000 1,000 100 10,000 number of ten thousands. 10,000 1,000 1,000 1,000 T: If the digits of the largest unit are equal, how do we 1,000 compare? S: We compare the next largest unit. à We compare the digits one place to the right. à We compare the thousands. Lesson 12: Compare numbers based on the meaning of the digits using , or = to record the comparison. 141 © Great Minds PBC TEKS Edition | greatminds.org/Texas A STORY OF UNITS – TEKS EDITION Lesson 12 3 2 T: Write your comparison statement on your board. Say the comparison statement in two ways. S: (Write 34,051 < 36,200 and 36,200 > 34,051.) 34,051 is less than 36,200. 36,200 is greater than 34,051. Repeat the comparison process using 6,520 and 6,250 and then 18,407 and 12,740. T: Write your own comparison problem for your partner to solve. Create a two-number comparison problem in which the largest unit in both numbers is the same. Problem 3: Comparing values of multiple numbers using a place value chart. Display: 52,103, 52,310, and 52,013 T: Write these numbers in your place value chart. Whisper the value of each digit as you do so. T: When you compare the value of these three numbers, what do you notice? 5 2, 1 0 3 S: All three numbers have 5 ten thousands. à All three numbers have 2 thousands. à We can compare the hundreds because they 5 2, 3 1 0 are different. 5 2, 0 1 3 T: Which number has the greatest value? S: 52,310. T: Tell your partner which number has the least value and how you know. S: 52,013 is the least of the three numbers because it has the least number of hundreds. T: Write the numbers from least to greatest. Use comparison symbols to express the relationships of the numbers. S: (Write 52,013 < 52,103 < 52,310.) Problem 4: Comparing numbers in different number forms. Display: Compare 90,000 + 8,000 + 70 + 6 and 98,706. NOTES ON T: Discuss with a partner how to solve and write your MULTIPLE MEANS comparison. OF ACTION AND S: I will write numerals in my place value chart to compare. à EXPRESSION: I will draw disks for each number. à I will write the first For students who have difficulty number in standard form and then compare. converting numbers from expanded S: (Write 98,076 < 98,706.) form into standard form, have them T: Tell your partner which units you compared and why. write the addition vertically and add, then write the other number below the S: I compared hundreds because the digits for the greater units sum and compare. Alternatively, have were the same. 0 hundreds are less than 7 hundreds, so them write the two numbers in a place 98,076 is less than 98,706. value chart and then compare them. Repeat the comparison process using 6 ten thousands 5 hundreds 8 tens and (6 × 10,000) + (5 × 1,000) + (8 × 10).

For some classes, it may be appropriate to modify the assignment by specifying which problems they work on first. Some problems do not specify a method for solving. Students should solve these problems using the RDW approach used for Application Problems.
