The document teaches how to put numbers in ascending and descending order. It provides examples of ordering small numbers and has interactive exercises for ordering larger numbers by asking the reader to identify the next number in the proper sequence. The reader works through examples of correctly ordering sets of numbers from smallest to largest.

1. Put the Numbers in Order

2. Comparing Numbers
Now you know how to
compare two numbers.
Today we are going to use
what we know about
comparing numbers to put
three or more numbers in
order.

3. Two Ways
Ascending Order
• This is when we go
from least (littlest) to
greatest (biggest)
• 5, 9, 23, 45
Descending Order
• This is when we go
from greatest (biggest)
to least (littlest).
• 45, 23, 9, 5
