content standard text - p.42: the document prints no Content Standard cell for sub-strand K1.3.2 anywhere (printed p.42 leaves the column blank); the first indicator's own words are reused so the field is not empty

Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Have learners talk about their likes and dislike. Using "Think-Pair share", have learners enumerate behaviours they like and those that they dislike using shells, pebbles, sticks, etc. Have learners share their findings using comparative language "more than" and "less than". Introduce learners to using the mathematical signs for the "more than" [<] and "less than" [>] to solve problems. Extend the activities with other objects.
