Measuring Length by Comparing

Our current Math unit is all about measurement.  In Grade One, students are required to be able to use length to compare and order objects.  Today the boys and girls were given the task of finding objects around the classroom that were "shorter than", "longer than" and "about the same as" an unsharpened pencil.
Our task!

This basket contained things that were about as long as an unsharpened pencil.

This basket contained things that were shorter than the pencil.

This basket contained things that were longer than the pencil!
