1. Direct Comparison

Unit Overview

Comparison is closely connected to events in everyday life. It is a basic form of
measurement that students use in their daily lives; height comparison, weight
comparison, etc. This unit does not use standard forms of measurement, but it
guides students to use observation to express comparison such as longer-
shorter, larger-smaller, more-less, and heavier-lighter. Students will also be able
to understand the concept of volume and develop their sense for volume, which
will build the foundation for their understanding of measurements as they
compare the different measurements of 2 to 3 objects.

Place two objects side by side to compare the length. When the same containers are placed side by side, the one
that is filled higher has the larger capacity.

First, guide the students to compare the objects intuitively. Then, have them choose objects
that are similar in length, area, weight, etc.
