Eight pairs of three-digit numbers, each written in a small hundreds, tens and ones chart so the places line up. Children compare the hundreds first; if they are the same, the tens; and only if those match too, the ones. Most pairs share a hundreds digit on purpose, and one pair is equal. Write greater than, less than or equal in the circle.
