Description

Reinforce measurement skills in your first grade classroom with this hands- on, Common Core- aligned math activity! Barnyard Games is a printable math center that will help your students practice comparing the length of two objects indirectly by using a third object. Use this center to supplement any standards- based, 1st grade math curriculum! 

First Grade Common Core Math Standard

1.MD.A.1 Order three objects by length; compare the lengths of two objects indirectly by using a third object.

1.MD.A.2 Express the length of an object as a whole number of length units, by laying multiple copies of a shorter object (the length unit) end to end; understand that the length measurement of an object is the number of same-size length units that span it with no gaps or overlaps.

Directions: The farm animals are playing a game! Who can take the longest jump from the barn to the tractor? Measure the jumps with unifix cubes. Write your work on a record sheet!

This printable math center includes:

  • 20 measurement cards
  • Printable unifix cube strips
  • Answer key
  • “Directions” page, storage label, and 2 record sheets
  • Color and black & white versions to help you save on ink!
