options: Compare two three-digit numbers based on meanings of the hundreds, tens, and ones digits, using >, =, and < symbols to record the results of comparisons.

Understand that the three digits of a three-digit number represent amounts of hundreds, tens, and ones; e.g., 706 equals 7 hundreds, 0 tens, and 6 ones. Understand the following as special cases:
- 100 can be thought of as a bundle of ten tens — called a “hundred.”
- The numbers 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900 refer to one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine hundreds (and 0 tens and 0 ones).

Count within 1000; skip-count by 5s, 10s, and 100s.

Read and write numbers to 1000 using base-ten numerals, number names, and expanded form.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this Choral Count is to invite students to practice counting by 1 beyond 120 and notice patterns in the count. These understandings help students develop fluency and will be helpful later in this lesson when students will need to use centimeters and meters to record lengths. For example, some students may record 1 meter and 30 centimeters as 130 centimeters.
Students may wonder about the place value of three-digit numbers. Although students are not expected to understand the hundreds place yet, be prepared to say that the 1 means 1 hundred without going too far. Unitizing 100 will be addressed in a later unit.

“Count by 1, starting at 120.”
Record as students count directly below the first count.
Stop counting and recording at 130.

“Who can restate the pattern in different words?”
“Does anyone want to add an observation on why that pattern is happening here?”
“Do you agree or disagree? Why?”
