Students will place two objects side by side (or balance them) to directly compare them on a specific attribute such as length or weight, and use language like 'longer than,' 'shorter than,' 'heavier than,' or 'lighter than' to describe the comparison.
Real questions from this skill, graded here. No account, and nothing is saved.

A balance shows which object is heavier.
The down side is the heavier side.
2 ribbons side by side. Line them up at one end: the one that sticks out farther is longer.
If the ends do not start together, a short thing can look long.
Lining up at one end makes the difference easy to see.
The shorter one stops first.
Line up one end. The one that sticks out is longer.
Comparing without lining up the ends.
Line up one end first, then look at the other end.
Which is longer: 9 cubes or 6 cubes? — 9. 9 cubes is longer than 6 cubes.
Today we'll compare two objects. Which pencil do you think is longer?
Here are two pencils. But wait — they aren't lined up yet, so it's tricky to tell.
First, let's line up their ends right at this dotted line.
Now look closely! One pencil sticks out farther on the right.
The red pencil is longer than the blue pencil.
And the blue pencil is shorter than the red pencil.
When we line two things up side by side, we can directly compare them. Great work!
While they climb, your page writes one true line to ask about tonight, and a short note each Sunday.
A chessboard has 64 squares — share them out between the 8 rows and each row holds exactly 8.
