The next series of size worksheets also comes from Kids Learning Station and will help your preschoolers learn about length - the ability to distinguish between long and short objects. A total of ten unique printables, students will be asked to observe and compare objects in order to:
- Identify which objects in a group are long and which are short.
- Identify the shortest and longest object within a group of objects.
- Practice drawing an object that is shorter or longer than the object presented.
- Match short and tall objects.
