Mode: Interpretive

Level: Novice

Students will tell the set of whole numbers greater than or less than a number.

Instruction to the teacher: 

  1. Select random whole numbers that your students recognize in the target language (i.e. based on the proficiency level of your students).
  2. Ask students to state the set of whole numbers greater than or less than a number given. (Note: be explicit that the numbers here means positive whole numbers) 

For example: 

Instructor: What are the numbers less than 4?
Students: 1, 2, 3 
Instructor: What are the numbers greater than 3 and less than 7?
Students: 4, 5, and 6.
