Big and Small, Full and Empty Worksheet for Nursery
How to teach it (Think of the real thing): Think of the real thing, not the picture on the screen. Imagine them standing side by side. The one that takes more space is bigger; the other is smaller. Full means filled up to the top, half full means up to the middle, empty means nothing inside.
