Worksheets: Greater Than Less Than Intro Package

For this concept, I’m introducing using < or > to indicate greater than or less than.

The symbol < indicates less than, for example 5 < 10.

The symbol > indicates more than, for example 5 > 1.

*A strategy to remember the direction of the symbols is to think of the symbol as being an alligator mouth. The alligator mouth always opens towards the larger number to eat as much as possible!
