Linear Measurement: Describing and Comparing Length


By Cindy Aossey (KCM) & Bethany Neel

a Spotlight post Students begin to explore measurable attributes by first directly comparing and then indirectly comparing objects. In this video, we explore length as an attribute, by directly comparing two objects, describing them as having more or less length or being longer or shorter. We also explore sorting objects based on the length of a benchmark item and comparing objects indirectly by using a third object.
