• Direct pairwise comparison of length using endpoint alignment
• Direct pairwise comparison of weight using balance-scale dip direction
• Justification of a length comparison by naming the endpoint evidence
• The distinction between ‘same length’ and ‘close but different length’
• Seriation (transitive ordering) of three objects by length
• The possible mismatch between visual size and actual weight
• Discrimination between length-comparison and weight-comparison task types
• The level (equal-weight) state of a balance-scale picture
• The shared direct-comparison logic underlying quantity comparison (Unit 3) and length/weight comparison (this unit)

Every lesson is written for a parent with no teaching background: it opens with a short script to read aloud, names the specific wrong idea a student is likely to reach for and how to correct it, and closes with a practice sheet you may copy for your household. Scripture references are King James Version throughout. Black-and-white, 8.5 x 11 in. The whole year of this course is also in this store as a single book.
