MaTh activity Thursday: Kindergarten (greater to, equal to, less than)

Maybe the skill of greater than, equal to, and less than is used a lot, but having the understanding of quantities is vital for mathematical understanding.  So, today my freebie reinforces K.CC.C.6 which states: Identify whether the number of objects in one group is greater than, less than, or equal to the number of objects in another group, e.g., by using matching and counting strategies.

It's a game called "Who has more?"

This little game is simple and hopefully your Kinder kids will love it : ).  Kids roll a handleful of dice onto a game board (it might be best the game board is place in a shallow box so the dice don't fly everywhere).  They record how many dice are on each character's side and they compare those values and put the correct sign (greater to, equal to, or less than).  You can download it free here at TpT or free here on TN.

So, there you have it.  My week has been crazy busy and eventful (sewer line being repaired, a trip to the ER with my oldest for stitches, another child home sick...).  Life is never dull here.  You are welcome to link up...
