Let’s Revise!
Mass is how heavy or light an object is.
We can use our pan balance to measure and compare the mass of objects
We can use our pan balance to measure collections of objects that are equal in mass.
Today you will use your home-made pan balance again to measure, compare and order the mass of objects from lightest to heaviest.
Watch Miss Rubino demonstrate how to complete your activity.
Now it's your turn.
Collect 3-4 objects that will fit in the cups of your pan balance and complete the activity as shown by Miss Rubino. Complete the activity 2-3 times using different objects.
When you have finished measuring, comparing and ordering, take a photo of your objects in order and send it to your teacher.
