How to use this sheet
- Compare real objects before the sheet: line up two pencils with their ends together.
- Use the words longer, shorter, taller, heavier and lighter in full sentences.
- For holds more and holds less, pour water or rice between real containers.
Common mistakes
- Comparing lengths without lining up the ends. Start both objects at the same place.
- Thinking a bigger object is always heavier. A big balloon is lighter than a small rock.
- Thinking a taller container always holds more. A wide container can hold more.
