Today, we’re going to have fun with a worksheet called “Who is Tallest?” Let’s learn how to find out who is the tallest, who is in the middle, and who is the shortest among some friends. Are you ready? Let’s go!
We have three girls: Emma, Jenny, and Sarah. We want to know who is the tallest and who is the shortest. Here’s what we know:
Let’s think about this. If Emma is shorter than Jenny, then Jenny is taller than Emma. And if Jenny is shorter than Sarah, then Sarah is the tallest of all!
So, we can say:
Now, let’s look at the pictures and match the names:
Great job! Let’s make sure it all makes sense: Emma is shorter than Jenny, and Jenny is shorter than Sarah. Yes, that’s right!
Now, let’s do the same with the boys: Ben, Jack, and Tommy. Here’s what we know:
Let’s figure this out. If Ben is taller than Jack, then Jack is shorter than Ben. And if Jack is taller than Tommy, then Tommy is the shortest!
So, we can say:
Now, let’s look at the pictures and match the names:
Awesome! Let’s double-check: Ben is taller than Jack, and Jack is taller than Tommy. Yes, that’s correct!
You did an amazing job figuring out who is the tallest and who is the shortest. Remember, it’s always a good idea to check your answers. Keep up the great work, and have fun learning every day! Bye-bye!
Height Hunt: Go on a height hunt around your home or classroom. Find three objects or people and compare their heights. Arrange them from tallest to shortest. Draw a picture of what you found and label each one as tallest, middle, or shortest. Share your findings with a friend or family member and explain how you figured it out!
Measuring with Blocks: Use building blocks or any stackable items to measure the height of different objects or people. Stack the blocks next to each object or person and count how many blocks tall they are. Write down the number of blocks for each and arrange them from the tallest to the shortest. Can you find something that is exactly the same height as another?
Story Time: Create a short story about three animals who want to know who is the tallest, who is in the middle, and who is the shortest. Draw pictures of the animals and write a sentence about each one. Share your story with the class or a family member. What did the animals do to find out their heights?
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the YouTube transcript:

The name of our worksheet is “Who is Tallest?” We need to solve the word problem by comparing the girls’ heights and circling the correct name next to each picture.
The first statement says, “Emma is shorter than Jenny, and Jenny is shorter than Sarah.” This is a bit tricky, so we need to think carefully about how to figure this out. We have to determine who is the tallest, who is in the middle, and who is the shortest.
I know that there are three girls: Emma, Jenny, and Sarah. Since Emma is shorter than Jenny, we can visualize this. Jenny is taller than Emma. Then, since Jenny is shorter than Sarah, we can conclude that Sarah is the tallest.
So, I will mark Sarah as T for tallest and Emma as SH for shortest. Jenny will be in the middle.
Now, let’s check the pictures to match the names. We identified Sarah as the tallest, so this picture is Sarah. The middle height is Jenny, so this picture is Jenny. Lastly, the shortest one is Emma.
Let’s double-check to ensure everything makes sense. Emma is shorter than Jenny, and Jenny is shorter than Sarah. Yes, that checks out!
Now, let’s move on to the next part, which asks for the boys’ names. We will solve the word problem by comparing the boys’ heights and circling the correct name next to each picture.
The statement says, “Ben is taller than Jack, and Jack is taller than Tommy.” Let’s write down the initials for their names: Ben, Jack, and Tommy.
According to the directions, Ben is taller than Jack, so we place Ben above Jack. Since Jack is taller than Tommy, Tommy will be below Jack.
Now, we can determine that Ben is the tallest, so I will mark him as T for tallest. Tommy will be marked as SH for shortest, and Jack will be in the middle.
Let’s check the pictures again. The tallest is Ben, so this picture is Ben. The middle height is Jack, so this picture is Jack. The shortest is Tommy, so this picture is Tommy.
Let’s double-check to ensure we got it right. Ben is taller than Jack, and Jack is taller than Tommy. Yes, that’s correct!
Great job! I love how you went back and double-checked your answers. It’s always a good idea to confirm your work. Excellent effort today! Bye-bye! Don’t forget to like us and subscribe to our channel. You can find links to our apps in the comments below.
