Size Worksheets
Preschool

By the time children get to preschool, they are starting to develop an understanding of of what a number is and to recognise the number of objects in small groups.

Counting is probably the most important skill your child will learn at this age.

By the end of pre-k, they should be able to count to 10 reliably, and understand the 1:1 correspondence of numbers and objects, knowing that the last number they counted tells them how many objects they are counting.

As well as developing their number sense, they are beginning to understand the language of position, and can tell the relative position of objects using words like 'above', 'below', 'next to'.

At this stage, children should be allowed to explore and play as much as possible with different materials, shapes, puzzles, and get an idea of how they work.

When comparing objects, children can tell which object is bigger or smaller than another. They can tell when two objects are the same and when they are different.

At preschool age, children are starting to notice patterns in the world around them.

They are beginning to be able to recognise when two things are identical, or when one object is bigger or smaller than another.

The following worksheets involve identifying the biggest or smallest animal or object from a small choice of 3 or 4 objects.

There is also a section where children have to identify animals or objects which are the same size.

The sheets are graded in order of difficulty, with the easiest sheets coming first.

Using these sheets will help your child to:

• understand and identify which object is biggest;
• understand and identify which object is the smallest;
• identify two objects which are the same size.

All the free preschool worksheets in this section support the Elementary Math Benchmarks.

Here is our selection of kindergarten comparing worksheets.

• understand the concept of most, least, biggest, smallest;

After your child has learnt to count objects up to 10 and write their numbers, they are ready to start counting one more and one less.

The worksheets here will support your child in counting one more/one less than a number of quantity.

Most of the sheets focus on counting up to 10. There are also some worksheets that go up to 25.
