Features

Both forms ask the same questions with different things and sizes
Pick the tool that tells how long or how heavy, and circle the shorter, the taller and the bigger thing
Read a pan balance to find the heavier thing, and circle the container that holds more
The last three questions for the states that teach them in Kindergarten: putting three things in order by length, measuring with cubes, and counting the blocks that balance a thing
A small picture beside each question number, so the teacher can say "find the sun"
Answer keys that name the lesson and skill of every question

Skills Covered

Pick the tool that tells how long, how heavy or how much
Tell which is longer and which is shorter
Tell which is taller and which is shorter
Tell which is bigger and which is smaller

Read a pan balance: heavier and lighter
Tell which holds more and which holds less
Put three things in order by length
Measure with cubes and count blocks on a balance

How to Use This Pack

The Kindergarten unit test on measurement. Pages 1 and 2 are Form A. Pages 3 and 4 are Form B: the same questions in the same order with different things and sizes, for a retake or a child who was away. Each form has 9 questions, one point each, and a Score line on its first page. Read every question aloud: a small picture beside each question number (a sun, a moon, a car) lets you say "Find the sun. Which one tells how heavy?" The pre-check and the unit review are packs of their own.

In the Classroom

Give Form A the day after the unit review, to a small group at a table, reading one question at a time and waiting until everyone is done. Questions 7 to 9 (putting three things in order by length, measuring with cubes and counting the blocks that balance a thing) are taught in Kindergarten in some states only: leave out the ones your class does not learn and score out of what is left, out of 6 if you leave out all three. The answer keys name each question's skill, so a missed question points to the lesson to reteach.

At Home

Use Form B as a check after the unit. Read each question aloud, then compare real things at home: two spoons, two shoes, a cup and a bowl.

Tips for Success

Read every question aloud; children answer by circling or writing one number
Say the picture first: "Find the moon," then the question
Before the test, line up real things at a start line to compare lengths
Show a real balance: the heavier side goes down
Use Form B as a retake after reteaching what was missed

Common Core Standards Alignment

This pack supports the following Common Core State Standards for Mathematics:

K.MD.A.1 Name the features of an object that can be measured, such as how long or how heavy it is, including several for one object.
K.MD.A.2 Put two objects side by side to see which is longer, taller, heavier and so on, and describe the difference.
1.MD.A.1 Put three objects in order from longest to shortest, and compare two lengths by checking each against a third object.
1.MD.A.2 Measure an object by lining up equal-size units (like cubes) along it without spaces or overlapping, and give the whole-number count.

Kindergarten Measurement Test
