Length and Height - Year 1 (5 Lessons)

This Year 1 maths unit includes five structured lessons focusing on length and height, designed to build pupils’ practical understanding through hands-on activities. The unit uses activity sheets only, with no PowerPoint presentations, making it ideal for independent work, small-group tasks, and guided teaching. Pupils compare, measure, and order objects using everyday language such as longer, shorter, taller, and shorter, developing accurate mathematical vocabulary. The activities support pupils in exploring length and height using non-standard units and visual representations, helping them to reason, make comparisons, and record their findings. This unit aligns with Year 1 maths objectives and supports confident early measurement skills through engaging, age-appropriate tasks.
