About

Fly with Skye to compare big numbers, even when a digit is missing, by starting at the left. Grade 4 place value: students compare three- to six-digit numbers with <, > and =, build the greatest number from digit cards, and find every digit that makes a comparison true. Every direction is narrated, and each wrong answer gets a spoken hint.
