LengthOrder Objects by Counting the Squares
Have your own math-themed party by learning how to order objects by counting the squares.
Measurement is an integral part of core math concepts. In kindergarten, kids learn about counting, colors, and shapes. They also learn about measurable attributes like length and weight of objects. In grade 1, the kids further develop their understanding of measurement.Grade 1 measurement games emphasize on practicing math skills to measure the “length” or “height”.
What is “length measurement”?
The definition of length measurement at this level is:
- “Length is the total gap measured between the leftmost and rightmost end of an object in the given units”.
Reference image: Hey kid, use coins to measure the length of any color pencil. Make a tower of coins by placing coins one over another. Check how many coins are needed to make a tower equal to the length of the pencil?
Measurement: The perspective of measuring and ordering
The best way to teach a kid about the measurement of length is by practicing the concept. To understand it better, SplashLearn games pick real life objects in games. Measurement skills in grade 1 focus on figuring the length of any object for ordering and arranging.

Kids learn to arrange objects in the ascending/descending order of their length or height upon observing them. They learn this using objects like pens, pencils, glasses, spoons or others.
- Learning & outcome
Comprehensive and didactical games for grade 1 from the SplashLearn are the best pick for a child. Each exercise is designed to master the specific concept and associated math skill. Measurement games for grade 1 aim to enhance their application skills.
The projected outcomes of the learning are:
- Observing the length of objects for suitable classification along with other attributes like shape, color, and type
- Using small objects like beads, pearls, coins, and others to measure the object’s length in suitable number
- Arranging and ordering objects on the basis of their length as-well-as height
- Developing strong visual observation and motor skills to pick and arrange objects
- Nurturing direct comparison skills to establish understanding of conservation of a measure
- Required math skills
To order and measure objects by length, kids need the knowledge of basic counting from 1 to 20.SplashLearn games for kindergarten covers skills like classifying objects according to length, height, and colors. This lays a foundation for understanding measurement in grade 1.
Engagement
As kids learn about ordering and measuring length, they can start with the direct comparison of two or more objects. In a meaningful manner, this comparison is vital in the culmination of thoughts. With practice, kids learn about writing logical sentences as follows:
- My book is long v/s my book is longer than yours
- My glass is filled v/s my glass is filled less than yours
The understanding of keeping a quantity constant for investigating is referred as conservation of measure. Games based on daily experiences are one of the most efficient way to achieve it.
In a simple manner, easy-to-play fun games with interactive themes on the SplashLearn app allow a child to excel in math. SplashLearn content follows the guideline of core math standards. Also, practicing math exercises and worksheets demonstrates significant improvement in the confidence. It makes understanding of advanced math concepts easier in the later grades.
Order Objects by Length
One of the fundamental approaches to learn math is understanding the concept of ordering. Each object around us can be ordered in a unique pattern. Kids can start identifying objects by the measurable attributes- length and height.
Strong visual observation to distinguish a smaller object helps the kid to classify and arrange the objects. Different categories are assigned for classification. Kids learn to apply their skills of colors, shapes, relative comparison and ordering.
Application
Ordering objects by length help in classifying and categorizing objects as per their size as well as shape. These skills are useful in learning the concept of data classification for later grades. Knowledge of counting and grouping similar or distinct objects is honed further. Math skills like addition and subtraction in grade 1 are also helpful.
The ordering of objects is instrumental in learning data representation techniques such as bar graphs, line plot and Venn diagrams in the later grades.

Terms to Remember
- Small/short
- Long/tall
- Arrange the following fruits in the ascending & descending order of their length:
a. Banana, cherry, orange, kiwi (reference image)
b. Eggplant, peas, tomato, asparagus bean (reference image)
- Collect 5 objects from the study table and arrange them in the increasing order of their length
- Engage kids in fun-filled activities by selecting similar objects from the games
- These objects can be crayons, pencil, pen, stick
Measure Length of Objects
As kids learn to distinguish small and large objects, measuring length becomes easy. Unlike the traditional ruler, SplashLearn fun games incorporate unique scales to measure length. With objects like tiles, coins, beads, paper pins and others; sui-generis scales are designed to learn the concept.
Reference image: Ruler can be replaced with random objects like pins or dimes
Application
With practice, kids can easily check the length of simple figures, pictures, and objects using different scales. These scales can be of smaller objects like squares, coins, beads or balls. By applying the concept in simple games, kids can use the standard ruler to measure length. This will help the kids in later grades to easily identify the length of sides for geometric figures. Interactive SplashLearn measurement exercises have numerous games to select length or construct a suitable scale to measure objects.
