Measuring Mass

During Maths, the boys and girls have started learning about mass. They began by looking at images of objects on balance scales and explaining how they could tell which was heaviest and which was lightest. The children could explain that if the scales were balanced, it meant the mass of the objects were the same.

The boys and girls then enjoyed handling and exploring gram weights. After feeling what 1g, 5g, 10g, 20g, 50g, 100g, 200g, 500g, and 1kg felt like, they estimated the mass of objects within the classroom. The children were then keen to use balance scales to measure the mass of each object and see how close their estimations were.
