Introduction
Introduce to students that this week we will be focusing on what is mass, how to
and litres
Balancing scales.
(Mass is the amount something weights, give an example do you think this laptop
Now get students to find an item that is heavy around the classroom and ask students
Pick up the two items one heavy and one light and ask students how they would
compare mass of the 2 items? (student response; ones heavy and ones light)
Body
Whole class
How can we measure mass? (students response- weighting it)(teacher- talk about the
balancing scales and how they show with object is heavier or lighter)
Talk to the students about the different forms of measuring mass (Teacher- g, Kg what
Whole class
Get students to find 2 items around the classroom and bring back to the carpet
Chose 2 items for the students to estimate which is heavier by looking at the object
Then teacher to use the balancing scale to find out the answer
Conclusion
Tuesday
Recap on students meaning on what is mass and how do you know what is heavier.

lighter.asp (Appendix 3)
Body
First find 6 items each and take back to your desk in pairs estimate which one you
think will be heavier and what will be lighter and draw a picture of the object in the box
Get students to weight the 2 items on the balancing scales to determine which is
heavier/lighter and then and draw the correct item into the box.
Conclusion
able to be weighted.
Recap on how they estimate that an item is lighter than the other (students by
looking, using our hand to see which feels heavy)
Introduction
ay
Talk to students about what are grams and kilograms (teacher they are form of
measure- use real life example on cereal box, chips and flour packet to show)
Body
Whole class- talk to student about how to operate the scale and how to read what is
shown on the scales.
Get student to find objects around the room and bring to the carpet
Get the students to estimate the weight by using the example to help them find an
answer Write down the item and estimation of how much they think is weights in
kilograms
Then weight the items using scales and write down the correct weight, see how close

working order.
(Appendix 6)
Extend- Have students estimate by just
Thursday
Introduction
Refresh on how to estimate (teacher-look at the size of the object, use your prior
knowledge)
Look at weights that weight 100kg and tones use pictures as a reference.
Body
Then walk around the school looking at different objects and as a class estimate the
weight of the objects (objects such as car, bus, water tank, wheelie bin)
(appendix 7)
Now get students to estimate the weight of the pictures shown (animals and objects
and tone.
Conclusion
Friday
Ask students if they can think of any other animals or object that might weight over
100kg.
Introduction
Re look at each form of mass g, kg and tones from real life example
Ascending graphs
Show student how to create a ascending graph where they will show their findings.
Pictures of items
Scales
Body
Around the room have objects ranged from grams, kilograms and tones, pictures of
object that are 100kgs and tones
Get the student to walk around the classroom and find 6 object/pictures and estimate
the weight
And create an ascending graph ranging the objects from lights to heaviest with the
Then have students weight items in the room and write correct mass
And have students look up the correct weight of the picture by looking at the picture
