What this lesson shows
The rope is longer than the bench. The bench is longer than the table. So the rope is longer than the table.
The worked example
The lesson works this one step by step: 10, 6, 3. Then your kid tries one like it on paper.
The steps
- Compare the first two
- Compare the last two
- So the first beats the last
Helping at home
Compare each with the thing in the middle. If the first is longer than the middle one, and the middle one is longer than the last, the first is longer than the last.
If your kid gets stuck
Compare each with the middle one.
