💡 Teacher / Parent Coaching TipsPedagogy
• Zero Baseline Rule: Remind the child that to compare lengths fairly, both objects must start at the exact same line.
• No Gaps or Overlaps: When using paper clips or blocks, make sure each unit touches end-to-end without space in between.
• Distance as Counting Steps: Reinforce that a shorter count means "nearer", while a larger count means "farther".
