By the end of the lesson, the learner should be able to:

- Represent inequalities on a number line.
- Interpret inequalities from number line representations.
- Develop confidence in working with inequalities.

In groups and individually, learners are guided to:
- Draw number lines.
- Represent simple inequalities on number lines.
- Interpret inequalities from given number line representations.
- Discuss the difference between representing < and ≤ on a number line.
