Comparing amounts (of tens and ones)

In today’s maths lesson, we have continued to compare amounts of tens and ones using the greater than, less than and equal to signs. We were even making and comparing 3-digit numbers. Muhammad even managed to work out that 13 ones needs to become 1 ten and 3 ones in 253 and when Holly didn’t have any hundred squares to make a 3-digit number, she said “I am going to use ten tens to make one hundred”. I was so impressed with the language the children used.
