Understanding Comparing Quantities
Let's learn about comparing groups of things!
When we look at two groups, we can tell if one has fewer items, if they're equal (the same), or if one
has more. This helps us understand numbers and quantities in our everyday life!
How to Compare
1️⃣ Count the items in each group
2️⃣ Look at the numbers you counted
3️⃣ Decide: is one fewer, equal, or more than the other?

Parent Tips 🌟
- Make it real: Compare everyday items like snacks or toys - "Do you have more crackers or fewer grapes?"
- Play matching games: Have your child pair socks or utensils to practice recognizing equal groups.
- Use hand gestures: Show "fewer" with hands close together, "more" with hands far apart, and "equal" by balancing hands.
