Which holds less
Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher
"Which holds less" is written for Preschool (Ages 3-5). Children who are new to this can work with a grown-up beside them, and the instructions are meant to be read aloud. Older children who need more practice with weight, volume and temperature can use it as a short review.


Which holds less: Circle the jar that holds less. A fuller jar holds more than an empty one. Part of our weight, volume and temperature measurement collection.

FAQ
How do I use this weight, volume and temperature worksheet?

Bring real objects to lift and compare, and let children guess before circling. Talk about safe hot and cold things.
What does this worksheet teach?
⌄
Pages compare weight, capacity and temperature with pictures. Some pictures are the same size on purpose, so children think about weight, not size.
Can I use this weight, volume and temperature worksheet for homeschool or classroom?
⌄
Yes, both. We made it for Preschool measurement, and the page works the same whether it lands on a kitchen table or a center rotation. At home, most families go through it together and talk the answers out loud, and that talking is where most of the learning happens with weight, volume and temperature. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.
How many Preschool weight, volume and temperature worksheets are there?
⌄
6 printable worksheets, all free to preview. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are weight, volume and temperature worksheets for?
⌄
These are written for preschool children, roughly ages 3-5. Start with the first few pages, use the free preview to judge the fit, and come back to harder ones as your child gets steadier.
Does my child need to know how to write for these weight, volume and temperature worksheets?
⌄
No. Most pages ask children to circle, trace, match, color, or cut and paste, and a few ask for a single number. A grown-up can read the instructions aloud, so children do not need to read yet.
Can I use these weight, volume and temperature worksheets for homeschool?
⌄
Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a Preschool classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
