Why it matters. Deciding which of two numbers is bigger is the first real piece of number sense. It is what lets a child later say that 17 is nearly 20, or that 9 is one short of 10.
Where children slip. Teens are the tricky part. Many children read 12 and 21 as the same pair of digits and lose track of which is which, so ask them to say the number out loud before they compare.
Try it away from the page. Put two small piles of pasta, coins or blocks on the table and ask which pile has more before counting. Then count together to check the guess.
