Happy Vegetables

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is part of a series designed to teach children how to compare quantities, using the terms “More than, Fewer than, Equal to.” It features two tasks: the first asks students to circle the group with fewer objects, which in this case are images of heads of lettuce. The second task shows a group of three tomatoes and provides an adjacent blank space where students are prompted to draw a group with more objects. The worksheet employs colorful images of vegetables to make the activity visually appealing and to provide a concrete context for the comparison tasks.

The worksheet teaches students the concepts of ‘fewer than’ and ‘more than’ by having them identify and create groups of different quantities. The circling activity strengthens their ability to discern which of two groups is smaller, honing their counting and comparison skills. The drawing task allows them to apply the concept of ‘more than’ in a creative and engaging way, reinforcing their understanding of numerical comparison. These exercises are important for developing foundational math skills, particularly for recognizing and understanding the relationships between numbers.
