About this worksheet

Before rulers, children compare lengths directly (lining objects up) and measure with informal units like blocks or paperclips laid end to end, then compare the counts.

In class: Compare objects directly (line them up at one end) and by measuring with informal units, blocks or paperclips placed end to end with no gaps, then compare the counts.

This Pre-K comparing length set is free to print or save as a PDF, and its answer key is computed in code, so it is never wrong.
