Headstart's High Five Mathematize

DEVELOPING MEASUREMENT
CONCEPTS
• Provide materials that encourage children to
explore measurement, like standardized and
non-standardized tools
• Use language that compares quantities (more
than, less than, same as, etc.)
• Use measurement terminology to identify
differences in attributes (longer, shortest,
heavier, lightest, etc.)
• Suggest measurement strategies when
children compare size, capacity, weight, and
other dimensions
