Hello,
Today we are going to focus on measuring - length
When we compare and talk about the length of an obect we use words like short, shorter, shortest, long, longer, longest, longer than and shorter than.
Watch the videos below to see how you can use this language to compare the length of objects.

Remember when we are measurung the length of something we are finding out how long it is.
