Pencils, ribbons and caterpillars with cubes lined up underneath to count.
What kids practice
Kindergartners compare two things to see which is longer, taller or heavier. They learn to line things up at one end before comparing length, and that the heavy side of a balance scale goes down.
Watch for
- Comparing length without lining up the ends.
- Thinking bigger always means heavier.
- Leaving gaps between cubes when measuring.
It's free to print, with Fewer, Standard or More on the page and an answer key. See the full comparing length and weight guide for kindergarten.
