Sea Size

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is set up with a series of illustrations featuring sea-related items, divided into four quadrants, each with two items depicted. Students are instructed to look at the pairs of items-a smaller and a larger shell, a smaller and a larger starfish, a smaller and a larger crab, and a smaller and a larger seahorse-and circle the one that is big. The clear visual size difference between the items in each pair allows students to easily identify the larger one. The consistent marine theme across all the items also adds an element of interest for the students.

The objective of this worksheet is to help students practice the concept of size by identifying the larger item in a set of two. It focuses on enhancing the students’ visual discrimination skills and their ability to compare sizes. This task also serves to reinforce the vocabulary associated with size, specifically the adjective “big.” By circling the larger item, students can concretely demonstrate their understanding of size comparison, an essential skill in early math education.
