THICKNESS

Baking activities are really wonderful for describing many of these concepts!

Squash the dough until you have a thin layer, or make a thick layer instead. Make thick biscuits and thin biscuits, big biscuits and small biscuits – and of course, count the biscuits!

Cut a thick slice of bread and a thin slice of bread. Look at a thick book that has many pages or a thin book. Discuss the thickest and the thinnest. Thicker than and thinner than.
