Ordering Two-Digit Numbers Task Cards for Varied Practice

Our Ordering Two-Digit Numbers Task Cards allow students to practice ordering and writing numbers up to 120, meeting multiple math standards. Students simply choose a robot-themed card and write the numbers on the card in order from least to greatest on their answer sheet. 

This resource includes: 

• Title slide with directions
• 24 task cards
• Recording sheet

The skill of ordering numbers can easily be overlooked in favor of comparing, but both are important! Use this resource in small groups, centers, scoot activities, or as independent practice. 

Ordering Numbers Vocabulary 

There are many phrases that can be used to describe the same action or process when ordering numbers. Your students may encounter these different terms on tests, worksheets, or activities. Here is a handy guide to a few phrases your students may not be familiar with. 

• Ascending Order: Also called “least to greatest.” To “ascend” means to go up, climb, or rise, so this term means to put the numbers in order from smallest to largest. 
• Descending Order: Also called “greatest to least.” To “descend” means to move, climb, or fall downward. This means to put the numbers in order from largest to smallest. 

Use these phrases interchangeably when teaching to ensure your students are familiar with them all!
