Are pupils confident in comparing lengths and heights? These Year 1 Compare Lengths and Heights Discussion problems will not only deepen understanding of measurement but also develop reasoning and group-work skills. Children will work together to use the clues to put the animals in order from the shortest to the tallest. Children will be required to find not one but two possible answers! Once completed, a second discussion problem awaits!
