Calling All Gamers!

Lately we've been learning how to read and write numbers in standard, word, and expanded form.  We've also been comparing numbers.  Do you play video games or games on a phone?  Take a moment to brag comment below--tell your favorite game, your highest score (in standard form) and how you would read that number.  If you're really proud of yourself, compare your score to someone else's using comparison symbols (< = >), then use words to write your comparison statement ho you would read it.  And if you really want to rub it in, you can even tell how many more points your score is than the other person's!


I don't play many games, but I delight in playing beating my brother in Words with Friends.  We haven't played in a while, but it might be time because I just noticed he is one game up on me!  My best score against him was 424 (four hundred twenty-four) to his average game score of 290 (two hundred ninety).  424 > 290 (Four hundred twenty-four is greater than two hundred ninety) or 290 < 424 (Two hundred ninety is less than four hundred twenty-four.).  424 is 134 more than 290, or 290 is 134 less than 424!
