Which group has more?

Kindergarten 8 questions

What which group has more? means

You look at two groups of pictures and compare them. You say which group has more or fewer, so you can answer counting questions correctly.

What you will practise

Look at two picture groups side by side.
Say which group has more pictures.
Say which group has fewer pictures.
Compare small sets without counting everything first.
Choose the correct group from a picture question.

Before you start

You should already be able to count simple objects one by one. It also helps to know the words more, fewer, and same.

Not confident yet? Work through Count objects up to 10 first.

Worked example

One question from this skill's own question bank, shown with its full working.

Question

Which are more: the mangoes or the bananas?

Mangoes
Bananas

Answer: Mangoes

Working: There are 4 mangoes and 2 bananas. 4 is more than 2.

Common mistakes to avoid

Counting one group only. Check both groups before you answer.
Thinking the bigger-looking pictures mean more. Count the objects, not the size.
Mixing up more and fewer. Remember more means a larger number.
Guessing too quickly. Point to each picture as you compare the groups.

Curriculum and exam alignment

Ghana GES Kindergarten syllabusSchool-based assessment

This kind of comparison usually appears in early number work in Kindergarten. It supports class practice, school-based continuous assessment, and end-of-term tests through simple picture questions.

Curriculum notes are a general guide to where this work normally sits. Always check the syllabus your school or examination body is currently using.
