Vertical Length

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a visual learning tool that introduces young students to the concept of measurement. It displays images of a giraffe, a skyscraper, and a pen next to vertical scales with numbered blocks from 1 to 10. The task for the students is to color the blocks corresponding to the height or length of each object and write the total number of blocks tall or long the object is in the circle provided at the bottom. The worksheet uses familiar and interesting objects to capture the students’ attention and make the concept of measurement relatable.

The worksheet aims to teach students how to measure the height or length of objects using a block scale as a unit of measure. It allows students to visually assess the size of an object and understand that measurement involves counting uniform units of length. By coloring the blocks, students engage in an interactive way to learn about measurement, and writing the number helps to reinforce their counting and number recognition skills. This activity also serves as a foundation for understanding standard units of measurement later on.
