Measurement is a way to find out how big, how long, or how heavy something is. It helps us know the size of things and compare them with each other.
Measurement: Longer – shorter

Measurement: Tallest – shortest
The concepts of “tallest” and “shortest” are used to identify the individuals with the maximum and minimum height within a group, respectively. Let’s use an example of students to illustrate these terms.
Definitions:
- Tallest: The student with the greatest height in the class.
- Shortest: The student with the least height in the class.
Examples-
Measurement: Thickest – Thinnest
The concepts of “thickest” and “thinnest” are used to describe the individuals with the greatest and least body width or girth within a group, respectively. Let’s use an example of students to illustrate these terms.
Definitions:
- Thickest: The student with the greatest body width or girth in the class.
- Thinnest: The student with the least body width or girth in the class.
Examples-
Measurement: Heavier – Lighter
The concepts of “heavier” and “lighter” are used to compare the weights of individuals within a group. Let’s use an example of students to illustrate these term.
Definitions:
- Heavier: The student with the greater weight.
