Comparing and Ordering Integers

This video lesson, part of lesson 4.3, focuses on comparing and ordering integers. It begins with an introduction and preparation of notes. The lesson explains how to compare integers with different signs, emphasizing that positive integers are always greater than negative ones. It then covers comparing integers with the same sign using a number line, illustrating how to determine which is greater. Finally, the lesson teaches how to order integers from least to greatest and greatest to least, using examples and a number line for clarity.
